Every Friday morning beginning on May 19, New York City's Central Park will be rocking with music's hottest names such as Lady Antebellum, The Chainsmokers, Big Sean and Linkin Park; international pop sensations Zedd and Alessia Cara; country megastars Little Big Town, Eric Church, and Florida Georgia Line; R&B superstars Jason Derulo, Fifth Harmony and more. Whether it's a multi-platinum group, Grammy® Award winner or nominee, Billboard® chart-topper or bestselling artist that's rocking the stage, this summer on "GMA" will be sizzling. The 2017 Summer Concert Series is sponsored by King's Hawaiian.

The series kicks off on May 19 with award-winning punk-rock band Green Day. They have been rocking the airwaves for decades and are one of the world's best-selling bands of all time with more than 75 million records sold worldwide. The group has won five Grammy® Awards and in 2015 was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The trio, which is currently on its Revolution Radio World Tour, will perform songs from its most recent #1 album Revolution Radio live for the GMA Central Park audience and viewers.
