Far too often talented artists fall short of gaining access to a wider audience. HopeStock is working to fill that void through a concert series; that creates a dynamic platform for new, emerging and established NYC-based and International artists, across all genres, to come together and inspire us through their music.
Maya Azucena, Nona Hendryx and IllspoKinN
HopeStock, created by artists for artists, is led by – Joe Giammalvo, Christian John Wikane, Lindsey Wilson, Alex Soady and the legendary Nona Hendryx. This team jumped over a major hurdle on July 26th with the launch of their concert series at S.O.Bs in Manhattan. You could not ask for a better venue to showcase the diverse group of artists which included the Kiki Hawkins Experience, Bobby Long (writer of the ‘Twilight’ theme song), Beth Arentsen, Maya Azucena, IllspoKinN and Nona Hendryx with the Band of Gypies.
It was an evening of great music! From the moment the Kiki Hawkins Experiences set things off to second the Band of Gypies played the last note, you were taking on a musical journey that touched the soul.

If you missed out on the launch, HopeStock is scheduled to present another musical experience on August 29th at The Brooklyn Lyceum.
