E Street Band saxophonist Jake Clemons will bring his own group to Tappan, N.Y., in June, to co-headline the fourth annual Rockland-Bergen Music Festival at German Masonic Park.
Clemons, who sings, writes songs and plays guitar, in addition to saxophone, released an album, Fear & Love, on the BMG label in January, and headlined the main concert of this year’s Light of Day Festival.
The festival, whose name refers to the proximity of its location to the Rockland County/Bergen County border, takes place June 23-25, and will also feature shows at the Turning Point in Piermont, N.Y., and the ’76 House in Tappan. Other acts will include John Cafferty & Beaver Brown, Steve Forbert, Joe Grushecky, Jeffrey Gaines, Hollis Brown, Ben Arnold, Joe D’Urso and Anthony D’Amato.
