For the fourth year in a row WTTS brought the party to Farm Bureau Insurance Lawn with Rock On TheRiver, presented by Arni’s Restaurant, a benefit concert for The Indiana Children’s Wish Fund. This year the show sold out and WTTS fans fought the traffic to see a knockout performance from The Record Company. There was barely anytime for the crowd to catch their breath before Nathaniel Rateliff and The Night Sweats delivered a memorable set to wrap up the night.

For the third year in a row WTTS brought the party to Farm Bureau Insurance Lawn with Rock On TheRiver, presented by Arni’s Restaurant, a benefit concert for The Indiana Children’s Wish Fund. Through most of the day Central Indiana experienced gray skies and rain but as show time grew close the clouds began to break and the sun began to shine! The evening began with a knockout performance from The Marcus King Band and there was barely anytime for the crowd to catch their breath before Robert Randolph and the Family Band took the stage. The Revivalists delivered a memorable set to wrap up the night. See the photos below, courtesy Rhythm In Focus Photography.
The New Orleans based band The Revivalists have become a new WTTS favorite with their latest release, Men Amongst Mountains. Hear the band’s live performance in Sun King Studio 92 from 2015. Robert Randolph & The Family Band is a longtime favorite of WTTS. Robert’s playing of the slide guitar is legendary and draws inspiration from soul, gospel and blues music. The Marcus King Band may be new to the national spotlight, but the Greenville, South Carolina band packs a soulful punch. Listen to their Sun King Studio 92 performance from earlier this year.

For the past 5 years, we’ve watched The Head & The Heart blossom into household names amongst WTTS listeners (their last appearance in town was a sold-our “Rock To Read” benefit in 2013). Brett Dennen’s been coming to town since 2008. And newcomers Kaleo will be in Indy for the third time in eleven months (including a “WTTS First Experience” this past January).
WTTS Rock on the River is more than just a concert: It’s an experience. The night of the show, we’ll have very special prizes to give away from each of the bands. Be sure to stop by the WTTS booth for your ticket. We’ll call winners from a Rock on the River Raffle for a merchandise package from Kaleo, autographed music catalog from Brett Dennen, and a special viewing experience and meet & greet from The Head & The Heart. Don’t have tickets to the show? From 6:00-6:15pm on the night of the show, find the WTTS representative outside of the gates. They can give you a raffle ticket that may get you into the show with one of these prizes. In addition to the raffle, we’ll be hosting a Twitter Hunt for WTTS Prize Packs. Follow us on Twitter to find out more.

Thanks to all of the listeners who attended WTTS Rock On The River, presented by Arni’s Restaurant. It was a fun night of live music at the Farm Bureau Insurance Lawn, as Alabama Shakes and Father John Misty played to a packed crowd of WTTS listeners. In the process, we raised thousands of dollars for the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund. Thanks for supporting great live music, and a worthwhile local cause as well.
