Antigone Rising to play Nickerson Beach

The Island Now

Antigone Rising is set to rock Nickerson Beach on Sunday, July 28. 

Known for their three-part harmonies and a vivacious live show, Antigone Rising has toured with The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, The Allman Brothers Band, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, and Dave Matthews Band amongst others.

In 2004, they were signed to Lava Records, leading to a partnership with Starbucks. With the release of their album, “From The Ground Up,” Antigone Rising became the first band in Starbucks’ “Hear Music Debut” series.

A 121-acre park, Nickerson Beach is located on Lido Boulevard in the Village of Lido Beach.  The park offers a beautiful three-quarter-mile-long shoreline as well as numerous attractions such as the “Fun Zone,” a family-focused recreational site that incorporates a skate park, colorful basketball courts, and a state-of-the-art playground.

In addition, a nautical-themed playground, constructed last year by the West Cabana area, incorporates slides, a climbing apparatus and a ship with various interactive features.  

The show will begin at 7 p.m. and admission is free.
