The 15th Annual Montauk Music Festival (MMF) is happening this weekend from May 14th – 17th, 2026! MMF is a four-day musical celebration featuring talented up-and-coming independent artists, set against the backdrop of one of the most idyllic beach communities on the east coast – Montauk, NY – with over 400 artists boasting a wide variety of musical styles (from alternative, rock, folk, pop, Americana, reggae, blues, jazz, bluegrass, to flamenco, hip-hop, country, and more), who will be performing for free in the spirit of sharing original music through showcases with audiences and fellow musicians.
Magnetic Vine and G&R Events are extremely stoked and humbled to be once again involved with the Montauk Music Festival this year. The Magnetic Vine team will be helping to produce and present three incredible shows alongside our new full service sound and lighting production company Sound Island from Fri – Sun, May 15-17th at Star Island Yacht Club, including performances by our clients IRIEspect, Mark Newman, Rob Eberle, Brooke Moriber, Marshall Oakman and more – including Rick Eberle himself, who will be performing a few solo acoustic gigs as well!
Plus, Rick will also be speaking on a special music industry panel on Friday May 15th at Shagwong Tavern alongside Lou Plaia (A&R Director, North America: Sentric Music Publishing and Owner/Manager: Hot Rats Entertainment) and others.

| Rob Eberle is a young, versatile singer, songwriter, and producer. Influenced by a diverse array of artists ranging from FINNEAS to The Fray, Eberle has carved out his own genre-bending niche in the realm of darker alternative pop-rock. | Rick Eberle With an alt rock flavor that fans of Third Eye Blind or Foo Fighters would dig on one track, to a sugary pop-rock sensibility in the vein of Fountains of Wayne or Barenaked Ladies on another, Rick Eberle has proven himself to be a unique and versatile singer, songwriter and guitarist on both ends of the musical spectrum. |
