Local musicians set to play the Rock Hall this summer

Local indie rockers unite with national talent to invade the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for Summer in the City next month.

Beginning on Wednesday, July 11th some of the most sought-after up and coming artists will perform on the Museum plaza (weather permitting, if necessary it will be moved inside to the Main Stage), and concessions will be available for purchase from the Museum and local food trucks on the plaza.

Every week, one national band will team up with a local buzzed-about band for the season’s festivities. Local favorite Dylan Baldi, aka Cloud Nothings, will kick things off with local indie rockers Herzog set to open the show. Ohio Sky, Mr. Gnome and Bethesda are among the other northeast Ohio talent on the roster for the summer event.

Each Summer in the City artist or band has been invited to blog on rockhall.com/blog to share their experiences with fans: how they got started, their inspirations, their aspirations for the future and what their thoughts are on performing in Cleveland at the Museum.
