Patrick McCormack* Rolling Stone is throwing a Fourth of July party on the Hudson River — and you’re invited. This Independence Day, join us and headliner Noah Kahan at Stateside, our very first music festival. It’s all happening at the Hutton Brickyards, in Kingston, New York. A historic site that once supplied bricks for American landmarks like the Empire State Building, it’s a picturesque setting for the festival, overlooking the Hudson.
The main event, on July 4th, channels the timeless spirit of Americana — hot dogs, fireworks, local food vendors, an artisan market, and high times under the summer sun. Plus, of course, a stacked lineup of music, headlined by Noah Kahan, the two-time Grammy-nominated, multiplatinum superstar. Kahan just released his excellent new album, The Great Divide, and is embarking on a sold-out national stadium tour this summer.
Along with Kahan, the Stateside Main Stage will feature powerhouse performances by Gigi Perez, Sydney Rose, Arcy Drive, and Bo Staloch. The nearby Scout Stage, presented by Scout Motors, shines a light on rising stars like Devon Gilfillian, Derby, Calder Allen, and Michaela Anne. Tickets to Kahan’s summer tour sold out as soon as he announced it, but you can still catch him live at Stateside with Rolling Stone this Fourth of July.
Saturday’s event is open to all, but those looking for a premium weekend experience can check out VIP and Platinum packages. Those unlock on-property stays at Hutton Brickyards along with exclusive programming moments on the evening of Friday, July 3, and the morning of Saturday, July 4, as well dedicated entry and bars, premium viewing, air-conditioned restrooms, and more. Check out Statesidefest.com/tickets for more information and to purchase tickets or packages.
Stateside represents the best of New York’s historic Hudson Valley. While roaming the grounds, attendees will find local merchants delivering the best flavors and experiences the area has to offer: food, beverages, handmade goods, and more. A portion of each ticket goes to the BusyHead Project, the nonprofit mental-health organization founded by Kahan that aims to end the stigma around mental health and improve access to resources.
Stateside Festival is partnering with Boston Beer Co. to bring Dogfish Head, Sun Cruiser, and Angry Orchard to this year’s event. Dogfish Head is working on a special product launch for Stateside, with additional details to be announced soon.
