Foo Fighters to Headline Sea. Hear. Now

Foo Fighters are coming back to the the beach!

The band will make a triumphant return to Asbury Park September 16-17 at the Sea. Hear. Now festival, promoters announced this morning. The last time the band appeared in Asbury Park was for the Bamboozle Festival, which also featured Bon Jovi. Foo Fighters will appear on the second day of the festival, Sept. 17.

This year’s lineup is packed with big names, including The Killers, Greta Van Fleet, Weezer, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, Mt. Joy, Sheryl Crow, The Beach Boys, Living Color and more!

As per tradition, the surfing fun will return with the North Beach Rumble surf contest, taking place between the Surf and Sand stages and will feature the best surfers from the East Coast competing in a team format. The teams, captained by professional surfers Cam Richards and Sam Hammer, will compete in multiple heats with the winning team awarded for the most wins based on overall style and creativity. Teams will also feature big wave surfer Will Skudin and legendary ladies Cassidy McClain and Jamie DeWitt, as well as Jersey’s Rob Kelly and Montauk’s Pat Schmidt. View the full surf lineup here.

Stoke Henge, located in the sand just off the boardwalk, is once again the center of all things art. Asbury Park visual artist Pork Chop will return with his iconic jellyfish and surfboard arch serving as the festival’s visual centerpiece. Legendary Jersey Shore artist Jay Alders is at the forefront this year where his ocean related display of panels will envelop the ocean side of the boardwalk, with favorite local artists featured on the boardwalk side. Over in Bradley Park, the Transparent Gallery will feature artwork from participating festival musicians along with special pop-up performances.

Stevie Nicks and Green Day headlined the 2022 edition of Sea.Hear.Now. In 2021, Pearl Jam chose the event as the site of its first live appearance in more than three years.
