The Met's electronic music series, Sun Sets, which has made the Museum's Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Roof Garden a top destination throughout the summer, will enter its final weekend with an exciting lineup: On Friday evening Musclecars will perform, followed by Analog Soul on Saturday. This was the first concert series to take over the Museum's rooftop and it quickly became a popular experience drawing visitors and music enthusiasts to performances set amidst the stunning views of the New York City skyline and Central Park.
