Brooklyn Comes Alive To Return For Second Year

After a successful outing last fall, Brooklyn Comes Alive is coming back for year two on October 22. The all-day event will include inventive supergroups featuring over 50 artists performing 15+ sets at three Williamsburg venues: Brooklyn Bowl, The Hall At MP and Music Hall Of Williamsburg.

The impressive lineup for Brooklyn Comes Alive ’16 includes Joe Russo (Joe Russo’s Almost Dead), Oteil Burbridge (Allman Brothers/Dead & Company), Marc Brownstein (The Disco Biscuits), Aron Magner (Disco Biscuits), John Medeski (Medeski Martin & Wood), Jason Hann (The String Cheese Incident), Adam Deitch (Lettuce/Break Science), Robert Walter (Greyboy Allstars/Mike Gordon), Scott Metzger (Joe Russo’s Almost Dead), Kofi Burbridge (Tedeschi Trucks Band), Alan Evans (Soulive), Neal Evans (Soulive/Lettuce), Adam Smirnoff (Lettuce), Roosevelt Collier, Michael League (Snarky Puppy), Skerik, Reed Mathis (Tea Leaf Green), Holly Bowling and others. A complete initial lineup can be found below.

Look for the supergroup formations and special sets to be announced soon. Those purchasing a ticket to Brooklyn Comes Alive can attend shows at all three venues on the 22nd. Organizers Live For Live Music do note, “Some venues may reach capacity, so make sure you arrive at your most desired sets early to ensure a spot, although you will always be guaranteed a spot at one of the venues.” Look for the music to begin at The Hall At MP at noon with a special brunch. Then, Brooklyn Bowl and the Music Hall Of Williamsburg will open up in the early evening, and all three venues will remain open all night long.

Tickets and VIP packages are on sale now via the event’s website.
