Join us at the Paramount Hudson Valley Theater on Friday, December 9 for a full night of good, old-fashioned rock ‘n roll!

Co-headliners the Bluechips and Lovehoney will breathe life into you with their energetic take on psych and blues rock. No Grudges will convince you that “funk punk” is your new favorite genre of music. And our Battle of the Bands winner, Platinum Moon, will knock you out with their musical skill and a stage presence that defies their years.

Together these four bands will make you wonder why they're not already blowing the roof off stadiums and major festivals. Catch them in your backyard while you still can!
