Rhode Island’s Deer Tick will once again host three semi-official after shows for the Newport Folk Festival. The local heroes will return to Newport, RI’s The Newport Blues Cafe from July 26-28. Their shows will kick off after Newport Folk Fest comes to a close each night.

Proceeds from these shows will benefit both the Newport Festivals Foundation and Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation. Tickets for all evening events will go on sale at the end of April. All event details and ticket prices will be announced via social media in the coming weeks.

A variety of surprise guests and special opening acts will join Deer Tick during the three-night run. Jackson Browne, Jonathan Wilson, Middle Brother and many others joined Deer Tick during last year’s Newport Blues shows.
