SummerStage is an annual free concert series in NYC, held throughout 14 parks in the five boroughs between June and August. My FAVE Ty Dolla $ign will be kicking it off this year on June 3 at Red Hook Park in Brooklyn, just two days after he hits that Summer Jam stage! Other acts confirmed for the summer are Ana Tijoux (July 9), Sisqó (June 11), Cibo Matto (July 13), Mobb Deep (July 17) and Joe (Aug. 12).

SummerStage will also feature big names in a series of benefit concerts, though these will NOT be free. They include Counting Crows (June 30), Beck (July 1), Neon Trees (July 7), Conor Oberst (July 29) and Fania All Stars (Aug. 24). Get the full lineup here.
