Entercom has announced the dates for “Not So Silent Night,” a Radio.com event, in New York, San Francisco and San Diego. The alternative music festival started in San Francisco in 1991 and has grown from a small acoustic concert to a large arena show hosting some of the biggest alternative acts in three cities. This year, the show will debut at New York’s Barclays Center. Co-headlined by Muse and Florence + The Machine, ALT 92.3’s holiday event will also feature musical performances by AJR, Bastille, Chvrches, Death Cab for Cutie, Foster The People, and Mike Shinoda on Thursday, December 6.
“Entercom brings fans the best of live and local events and we are thrilled to have artists that are on the forefront of new music participate in this year’s event lineup across the country,” said Michael Martin, SVP/Programming and Music Initiatives, Entercom. “We have an amazing group of alternative stations with passionate audiences who embrace today’s alternative scene hosting in each city.”
“New York has been starved for a station that can unite the biggest names in alternative music with like-minded fans throughout the tri-state area,” said Mike Kaplan, SVP/Programming and Program Director, Entercom New York. “To bring together all of these artists on one stage for one night is an incredible first step in harnessing the power of ALT 92.3’s influence in our community.”
