Underwater Sunshine Festival 2025

Underwater Sunshine Festival is a non-profit two-night music festival, created in 2018 by Adam Duritz of Counting Crows and Barbara Garrett, to support rising artists and create community through music discovery. MTF has been a long-time supporter of the festival and a few of our beneficiaries have played past festivals. Adam joined MTF’s Board of Directors earlier this year and MTF is excited to now be the presenting partner of the festival!

The festival promises, as always, to be a wonderful gathering of fans, friends, and supporters with an incredible lineup of talented artists from Massachusetts, Tennessee, Texas, and of course New York. Please join us — see your ticketing options below!

To celebrate its inaugural presenting partnership, MTF is hosting a Private Festival Prelude with a very special MTF Superstar Friends Concert by Elvis Costello, Peter Criss, John Leventhal, Shawn Pelton, Catherine Russell, and Paul Shaffer, and an exciting offering of items in the MTF Prelude Auction. A limited number of MTF FRIENDS Tickets are now available for $250, entitling you to early admission on Friday and Festival general admission both nights. MTF FRIENDS ticket buyers get a free gift Festival T-shirt!
