The drumline marching band, [Fogo Azul NYC](https://fogoazulnyc.com/?ref=bklyner.com), will open up the evening with a bang at the Pearl Street Triangle followed by a concert by [Ljova and the Kontraband](http://www.ljova.com/kontraband/?ref=bklyner.com) beneath the iconic Manhattan Bridge Archway. The Moscow-born Lev “Ljova” Zhurbin and his band play an international mix of classical, jazz, klezmer, tango, and Gypsy music.

Each musical performance in June will coincide with a country playing in the World Cup on that particular Thursday. Along with Ljova and the Kontraband performing on the 14th, the June lineup includes: Argentinian singer [Natalia Clavier](https://www.nataliaclavier.com/?ref=bklyner.com) on June 21 and Afro-Colombian ensemble [Grupo Rebolu](https://www.gruporebolu.com/?ref=bklyner.com) on June 28.

Each week a small pop-up gallery set up beneath the Archway will feature the work of a different DUMBO-based artist who will be on hand to create collaborative art with attendees.
