Across decades and cities, from the Bowery to Chicago, their goal remains clear: the underground still has a home.
To mark the inaugural CBGB Festival and Riot Fest’s 20th Anniversary, the two partnered and created a shirt that traces the path CBGB carved for independents like Riot Fest, while pointing toward the future of underground music and art. The t-shirt is only available at Riot Fest, in limited quantities, while supplies last.
Available Friday, September 19 – Sunday, September 21, 2025 at Riot Fest merch booths.
