Amish Outlaws Are Back, And More At Brick Summerfest 2016

BRICK, NJ -- The SummerFest 2016 concert series has been announced for this summer, with some familiar acts and some new ones set to fill Windward Beach Park with music once again, this time in partnership with Townsquare Media, Brick Mayor John Ducey announced.

“This year’s SummerFest Concert Series is going to be the best the one yet. We have scheduled four great bands that all play music that everyone knows,” Ducey said. “In addition, we have brought Townsquare Media Jersey Shore in to be the new media partner of SummerFest. Townsquare is the largest media company in New Jersey and their radio stations are listened to by more people than any others.”

Townsquare Media Jersey Shore’s radio stations include 94.3 The Point, 92.7 WOBM, 105.7 The Hawk and 1160/1310 WOBM-AM.

“We are very happy to partner with Brick Township for their great lineup of events and activities this year,” said Ted Maturo, marketing director for Townsquare Media Jersey Shore.

This year’s SummerFest Concert lineup is:

Saved By the 90’s – the World’s Awesomest ’90s Party! Get your flannels and fanny packs ready as SummerFest goes back to the 1990s with the Bayside Tigers! The band plays the best songs from the ’90s all over the East.

The Amish Outlaws – returning for their second SummerFest, the Amish Outlaws constantly surprise the audience and keep them guessing as to what they could possibly play next, from Johnny Cash to Jay Z, Lady Gaga to Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre, Bon Jovi to Elvis Presley, The Foo Fighters to Dropkick Murphys, to theme songs from the TV shows they have come to know.

Thursday, July 21

Rubix Kube – The Galaxy’s Most Original ‘80s Tribute Band - The KUBE is more than just a cover band. Every super-charged show takes it to the max and guarantees to set the roof on fire and burn down the house. (Metaphorically speaking of course).

All concerts are held at Windward Beach Park, Princeton Avenue. Each concert will be followed by fireworks. There will be a food court for each concert as well as free shuttle bus service. There is also a beer/wine concession for guests ages 21 and over.

SummerFest is free to attend.

“SummerFest wouldn’t be possible without sponsorships. We are currently seeking sponsors for this year’s series,” Ducey said. “This is a great chance for businesses to become associated with one of the longest running municipally-run series in New Jersey and a Jersey Shore tradition that attracts tens of thousands of people each summer. With Townsquare on board, this year’s SummerFest will be even bigger than ever.”

Any business that is interested in becoming a SummerFest sponsor should contact Madeline Iannarone of the Brick Township Recreation Department at 732-262-1076.

In addition to the concerts, the SummerFest series includes Drive-In Movies, the National Night Out Against Crime/Kids Day Celebration, the SummerFest Car Show and the Bricktoberfest Celebration in October.
