On Nov. 2, Nyack Hospital’s Battle of the Bands will give local physicians and their bands the chance to rock on for a cause, thanks to the annual live music event supporting the hospital's pediatric emergency department.
Featuring an array of soft, contemporary, traditional and progressive rock, the evening will showcase a variety of bands comprised of doctors, surgeons and other medical professionals. These include radiologist Dr. Ken Blumberg and his band The Temple Dudes; hematologist/ oncologist Dr. Bob March and the Magic 8-Ball Band; and orthopedic surgeon Dr. Barry Kraushaar, gastroenterologist Dr. Stephen Goodman and neurologist Dr. Lyle Dennis of the band Miss Diagnosis.
In addition to enjoying the music, guests can enjoy a southern BBQ as well as beer and wine offerings. Commemorative t-shirts are available for purchase and an auction will be held the evening of the event.
