SHOW POSTPONED: SEPTEMBER 18 | FOREST HILLS, NY

The City Winery Open festival that Dawes was scheduled to perform at on September 18 is being postponed to next year. Dawes are currently not scheduled to play in 2017. Note from the promoter below:

“We so appreciate your interest in the City Winery Open. It is with regret that we inform you that the CW Open has been postponed a year to Saturday, September 16 and Sunday, September 17, 2017. While we have received countless emails and calls from you, expressing your enthusiasm for the event, the line up of incredible artists, the food provided by celebrated chefs and the world-class array of wines we look to offer the public, we needed much more time to fully produce an event of this magnitude.

We sincerely apologize for the pre-mature and unprepared enthusiasm that fueled going on sale with this unprecedented festival. We really want the first year to be a huge success and just need the additional time to make it work correctly.

Please know that you will receive a full ticket refund from our ticketing partners at Ticketfly. As an additional bonus, we are sending you a coupon for a glass of wine at City Winery or City Vineyard, good for use anytime between now and Labor Day.

If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at info@cwopen.com.

We apologize for the disappointment and inconvenience posed by this postponement and we hope that you will consider joining us for the 2017 CW Open.”

PLEASE HELP US END MALARIA

Hey there,

If you’ve been following us the past couple of years, you’ll know that we have been working with Nothing But Nets and that putting an end to malaria is a cause that is close to our hearts. In 2013, we were in Rwanda and saw first hand what malaria can do to a community and how easily this can be prevented by using mosquito nets. 

To continue our fight against malaria, we made an exclusive song in the studio this year and this is the only place you can get it right now. Pretty great, right?  Even better — it’s a cover of “Fisherman’s Blues” by The Waterboys which we’ve been playing on the road a lot this year. The money raised will protect refugees from malaria with the UN Foundation and Nothing But Nets.

From now until August 20th, if you donate any amount to Nothing But Nets, you’ll get a download of the song. For just $10, you can  send an insecticide-treated bed net to protect a family and save a life.

We can’t reiterate enough how important this is. Thank you!
