Cloud Nothings to Headline 5th Annual Red, White & Brew Music Festival

One of the few local acts that can legitimately make the claim that it’s a national act, indie rockers Cloud Nothings don’t play often in Cleveland because they’re regularly on the road.

Now, the Greater Cleveland Aquarium has just announced the band will headline the 5th Annual Red White & Brew Music Festival, which takes place from 3 p.m. to midnight on Monday, July 4, on the grounds of the Nautica Entertainment Complex on the West Bank of the Flats.

The music festival will showcase eight other acts, including Cleveland Jazz Orchestra, Ottawa, Thaddeus Anna Greene, Kristine Jackson Band, These Knees, Oldboy, Sammy Slims and Brothers.

The site also offers a terrific view of the city’s fireworks display, and the aquarium will be open with extended hours. Food trucks on site will include Melt Bar and Grilled, Barrio, the Manna Truck, the Hunger Squad and Jones Bones BBQ. There will also be kids games and activities at the Meltdown Zone presented by Melt.

Tickets are $35 for adults, $14 for children ages 2 to 12. Adult VIP tickets are $75. Reduced $25 adult tickets are available through May 31. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased online at greaterclevelandaquarium.com or by phone at 216.862.8803.

RWB Music Festival is a rain or shine event with exception for the firework show.
