ROCKIN’ THE RIVER

After hosting Titus Andronicus and the Black Angels in 2011 and Archers of Loaf and The Drums in 2012, the Voice’s own 4Knots festival returns to the South Street Seaport with—in our unbiased opinion—its best lineup yet. Philly rocker Kurt Vile headlines, but get there early for sets by noise-turned-roots fivesome the Men, fretboard hero Marnie Stern, Canadian punks White Lung, and Brooklyn indie dudes Parquet Courts. Get there even earlier for Fat Tony, Hunters, and The Babies, and then head to the Music Hall of Williamsburg to see Lil B headline the official after-party.
