Global Citizen provided, much like the city that hosted it, a melting pot of artists from as far away as Spain (Rosalia) and Italy (Maneskin) and as local as New Jersey natives, Charlie Puth and the Jonas Brothers, and Long Island’s own Mariah Carey.

It helped that the weather cooperated and made for smooth entry and exit for the tens of thousands in attendance. Backstage, a who’s who of the music industry gathered, including Guy Oseary, Universal Music Group’s Michele Anthony, Arista Records chairman David Massey, Brooklyn Bowl owner Peter Shapiro, agent Marsha Vlasic, Warner Records’ Eric Wong and Karen Kwak and L.A.

The Global Citizen Festival has come to signify not only the end of summer and the beginning of fall — but a renewal of all the ways that music can lift up our spirits and souls even in the most trying of times, whether you were chanting “Jonas!” or rocking a Metallica t-shirt.And the Jonas Brothers were the perfect way to start the festivities, which also just so happened to be hosted by Pryianka Chopra Jonas — the wife and baby mama of the youngest JoBro, Nick.Having such a major Indian star as Chopra Jonas host the event reminded all the New Yorkers on the Great Lawn that this was bigger than us — and this year’s festival had more of an international presence than ever before.Spanish sensation Rosalia, Italian glam rockers Maneskin and African queen Angelique Kidjo all took part.
