WinterStock 2025
January 18 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Doors 11:30am | Show 12pm
Back in the summer of 2020 a group of local musicians began gathering in a back yard along the 3 Mile River in North Dighton, and a grassroots music festival called RiverStock was born. The event outgrew the backyard and in the summer of 2021 , moved to the grounds at the Swansea YMCA. This past October 20, we finished our 5th season with the 28th installment of RiverStock. Music is played, the hat is passed, and money is donated to a variety of charities. In January of 2022, we brought our festival to the Narrows, and WinterStock was born. Now on January 18, 2025, we are set to bring you another afternoon of amazing music, brought to you by some of the finest musicians our area has to offer. We are very excited to announce a new beneficiary as we celebrate another afternoon of friendship, and community. RiverStock founder Steve Rodrigues, a Fall River native, graduated from BMC Durfee High School way back in 1975, so what better way to celebrate the 50th anniversary of his graduation than to offer to the graduating class of 2025, the first ever RiverStock Scholarship. We will divide the donations collected at this event between one male and one female student from the music department who wish to continue a music education. We have an opportunity to make this a lucrative investment in the future of two worthy students. This year’s lineup includes Rowan & Beautifully Human, The Beth Barron String Band, Kenny Motta & Sharon Jensen, Carrigan Nelson, The Automatics, The Louis Leeman Trio, and 3 Legged Dog with special guest Vincent Sawicki.
