Musicians from New York City and beyond will present free concerts, many of whom will be celebrating the debut of new songs or an upcoming summer album release.

5:30pm: Madison Rose
6pm: ZEE MACHINE

Zee Machine is a Los Angeles-based pop/rock/electronic singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, known for powerful vocals, dynamic songwriting, and a genre-spanning sound. A Berklee College of Music grad, they’ve performed internationally since high school, steadily growing a devoted fanbase and online presence. Their music has drawn praise from artists like Mark Ronson and led to collaborations with Grammy-winning producers. Zee Machine was nominated for Breakout Musical Artist at the 2023 Queerties, named one of The Advocate’s “7 Queer Artists Changing the Game,” and featured by People.com. In 2024, their EP CAN I BE HONEST…? hit the iTunes pop top 10, and their international Tears & Gears tour with Bentley Robles sold out multiple dates. With millions of streams, they continue to carve out their lane as an independent artist.

Madison Rose has slid down a rainbow from an alternate universe to awaken everyone to the full acceptance of others and most importantly — themselves. Since the fully independent release of her debut album TECHNICOLOR- she has racked up over 15 million+ streams across platforms, and featured on major Spotify and Apple editorial playlists and their covers. With write ups in Billboard, Paper Magazine, MTV and Rolling Stone marking her as “a stadium ready popstar”, Rose continues to defy the odds. She has hit continuous viral moments with stand out tracks 'ICONIC!,’ 'Better Off Alone,’ 'Sunshine,' and 'Thunder.' With her vivacious performance style, Madison has had the honor to open for AQUA, JORDY, and headline 20+ Prides across America such as Miami, Columbus and Boston. She was chosen to re-record “True Colors” for Spotify Singles Cyndi Lauper tribute and was named an "Emerging Artist to Watch" by People Magazine. She is a two time Queerty nominee with accolades for “Breakout Artist” and “Anthem of The Year” under her glittery belt.
