Psychedelic soul band Black Pumas, led by Eric Burton and Adrian Quesada, will take the stage at 8pm on Thursday, July 25. The HU Presents website describes the group as “one of the most electrifying new acts of recent years.”

A concert on Sunday, July 28 at 8 p.m. features country singer-songwriter Orville Peck, known for his strong musicianship, narrative songwriting style and signature mask, which he is never seen without.

“We’re excited to be back in Riverfront Park for the fifth year to bring even more incredible live music experiences to the region,” said Frank Schofield, director of live entertainment at Harrisburg University. “This year’s lineup will not disappoint. We can’t wait to get going with Jenny Lewis and Fleet Foxes. The Black Pumas will be back in July – this time on the Riverfront Park stage – and we’re excited to have Orville Peck back for this new tour.”
