AJR’s “Somewhere in the Sky” Tour Set to Light Up Jones Beach August 8 with Chelsea Cutler, Goth Babe, and More
WANTAGH, NY – Alternative pop trio AJR is bringing their high-energy “Somewhere in the Sky” Tour to Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater on Thursday, August 8, 2025. The Long Island stop is part of their nationwide amphitheater run and will feature a stacked lineup including singer-songwriter Chelsea Cutler, indie sensation Goth Babe, and additional special guests.
Known for blending electronic, orchestral, and indie-pop influences, AJR has built a reputation for their theatrical performances and radio hits like “Bang!”, “Weak,” and “World’s Smallest Violin.” The band – made up of brothers Adam, Jack, and Ryan Met – promises an immersive, cinematic experience with bold visuals, animated set pieces, and deeply personal storytelling.
The “Somewhere in the Sky” Tour supports their latest album, The Maybe Man, and aims to deliver a narrative-driven show featuring both fan favorites and new material. With a backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean and the open-air stage of Jones Beach, fans can expect a uniquely atmospheric night under the stars.
Joining them is Chelsea Cutler, known for emotional lyrics and viral tracks like “you were good to me” and “Your Shirt.” Goth Babe, the surf-rock-inspired project of Griff Washburn, brings a laid-back, lo-fi sound perfect for a summer night by the water. Other supporting acts on the bill will rotate throughout the tour and are expected to bring even more energy to the already loaded lineup.
Gates typically open around 5:30 p.m., with performances beginning in the early evening. As always, parking at Jones Beach Theater is available on-site but tends to fill quickly, so early arrival is recommended.
This concert is expected to draw a large crowd of pop and indie fans from across Long Island and the Tri-State area. Tickets are available now through major ticketing platforms, but seating is limited as the show approaches.
