8th Annual Brooklyn Americana Music Festival September 23 – 25 in Dumbo NYC
Significant music festival grows in Dumbo and Red Hook – Red Hook Star Revue
If you hear twangs of mandolin or fiddle wafting across the East River, it’s not carrying up the coast from Nashville — it’s the Brooklyn Americana Music Festival, taking place on several stages in Dumbo. Critics Choice,
Folk music is alive and well in Brooklyn. A number of venues and musicians are committed to keeping traditional music—including folk, Americana, bluegrass, old time, and country music—on stage.
Brooklyn Americana Music was founded in the wake of the Dumbo Arts Festival folding in 2014. DAF was an incredible visual arts open studio experience, where we produced the live music stages in loading docks, the tobacco warehouse, rooftops, industrial era lofts, and all along the river side for fifteen years. NYC Mayor Eric Adams, then Brooklyn Borough President gave us the thumbs up to forge ahead, and thanks to Brooklyn Arts Council we are supported by the Brooklyn Arts Fund and NYC Department of Cultural Affairs.
We acknowledge the unceded territory where we gather as the traditional land of the Lenape Peoples, The Nayack and The Canarsee with gratitude for the land itself, and the people who have stewarded it throughout the generations
