About the event

Music at the Mansion - The Big Takeover
The Friends of Long Hill Estate and the Long Hill Estate Authority are excited to host their Music at the Mansion series again this year. All of the concerts will begin at 6:30pm. The grounds will be open for food trucks and picnicking at 5:30pm.

The 2025 Concert Schedule is as follows:

July 2 – Austin James and the Nomads

July 9 – The Big Takeover

July 16 – Souls on Fire

July 23 – The Cartells

July 30 – Kings of Karma

Please Note: There is limited parking at the Mansion. General parking is at at Mercy High School, 1740 Randolph Road and Wilbert Snow School, 299 Wadsworth Street. The Mansion parking is reserved for handicap guests only. ALL vehicles will be directed to Mercy High School/Snow School when Mansion handicap parking is full. The most convenient parking is located at Mercy High School. Concerts will be held in light rain, but cancelled with the proximity of electrical storms that may endanger both guests and musicians.

Enjoy food from a rotating list of participating food trucks including Scatz Catering and Skyscraper Sandwich Truck. We’re also excited to have back the popular Vecchitto’s Italian Ice who will be selling their famous handcrafted ice at every concert. You may also bring a picnic dinner if you wish!

Please note that the Mansion is closed during the concerts. There are port-o-potty’s located on the west side of the lawn by the garage and at the rear of the overflow parking lot. There is a 10 minute intermission and the Mansion grounds close 30 minutes after the conclusion of the concert.

On July 9th, after a cancelled concert last year due to the forecast, we are bringing The Big Takeover to the Mansion for an evening not to be missed! Fronted by the charismatic Jamaican-born singer and songwriter Nee Nee Rushie, the seven-piece New York band The Big Takeover plays original music that is rooted in and reverent toward the genres and rhythms of Jamaican pop: reggae, rocksteady, ska. They are devotees of Desmond Dekker and the way the old school did it. At the same time, The Big Takeover crosses lines and blends traditions like global pop fusionists. Their deceptively complex arrangements and big hooks connect with the spirit of Motown and the uptown sophistication of the 21st century retro soul and R&B revival scene.
