Hudson River Park’s *RIVER ROCKS* Location: Pier 54 Cross at 14th St. or Horatio St. *Yeasayer* Local favorite Yeasayer brings their self styled “Middle Eastern-psych-snap-gospel" to Pier 54. Pulling from every spectrum of music and mashing, then re-mashing, Yeasayer have bent genres until they’ve become unrecognizable. The Brooklyn-based band manages to make experimentalism playful rather than pretentious by harnessing tricky world-music influences. Brooklyn's *Amazing Baby* boasts a "now" sound that flips through static-y channels broadcasting acid rock, electro, wailing prog, and stomping, Suede-esque Britpop. The band's much anticipated debut album “Rewild” is due on June 22. 2009-06-23T13:44:31-04:00 false #<Genre:0x2a9b786778> 4 Yeasayer 24 FREE CONCERT on Pier 54!
