ABC No Rio hosted a free afternoon of music in Tompkins Square Park on Saturday as a fundraiser for its long-awaited new home on Rivington Street... part of a weekend that included the annual Riot Reunion show.
Five bands performed during the event. We caught sets by headliners, indie vets Ted Leo & the Pharmacists, and Crush Fund.
Organizers also passed the bucket to help fund a new PA system for the new ABC No Rio building, expected to open later this year.
From the day...starting with NYC's Crush Fund, who released a debut record on Friday...
... and Ted Leo, who played in the OG ABC No Rio space in the early 1990s...
