Lynyrd Skynyrd at RV Inn Style Resorts Amphitheater

Lynyrd Skynyrd

The South's favorite rock band, Lynyrd Skynyrd has been together, in one form or another, since 1964. Their signature is the magical blend of not two but three guitars, which have weaved their way through iconic hits like Sweet Home Alabama and of course the ten-minute epic Free Bird. Catch them on the 'Sharp Dressed Simple Man Tour' with special guests ZZ Top!

Imagine Dragons at RV Inn Style Resorts Amphitheater

Imagine Dragons

Las Vegas-based 'Radioactive' indie pop-rockers Imagine Dragons are hitting the road on a brand new tour to celebrate their sixth studio album, 'Loom'! Much like their desert-born stadium rock contemporaries, The Killers, Imagine Dragons seamlessly blend engaging synth-based dance-pop with emotionally charged Brit-pop-inspired alt-rock. Don't miss your chance to see these Grammy winners live!

Faye Webster at McMenamins Historic Edgefield Manor

Faye Webster

Indie-folk singer and songwriter Faye Webster hits the road with an extensive North American tour in support of her LP 'Underdressed at the Symphony'! Webster's music is a sweet spot between honest songwriting with close-up, honest vocals. Underpinned with slide guitars, soft drums, and warm piano chords weaving their way through the melodies, she brings the hallmarks of classic American indie-folk songwriting to a new generation.

Mitski at Moda Center

Mitski

Singer-songwriter Mitski is back with a brand-new tour in support of her new album 'The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We'.

Tamino, Sunny War, Julia Jacklin, and Sarah Kinsley will support this tour on certain dates.

Explosions In The Sky at Revolution Hall

Explosions In The Sky

Explosions In The Sky are heading on their first tour since 2020! With a reputation for a scathingly intense live performance and a quickly sold-out CD-R demo 'How Strange, Innocence', which was later reissued in 2005, Explosions in the Sky was touted early on in their career as the next phenomenon in moody and dynamic instrumental indie rock a la Mogwai and Godspeed You Black Emperor!

Peter Hook at Mcmenamins Crystal Ballroom

Peter Hook

The former bassist and co-founder of English rock groups Joy Division and New Order has carved out a successful, albeit low-key musical career since the latter disbanded in 2007. Nowadays he can be found with his newest collective, Peter Hook and the Light, which also features his son Jack Bates! Mainly playing favorites from his Joy Division and New Order back catalog, his newest tour is shaping up to be a busy one due to heavy demand from fans.

Hot Tuna at Aladdin Theatre

Hot Tuna

Hot Tuna (also the name of an Ozzie surf brand randomly) is made up of co-founders and continuing core members Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady, a duo with a unique combination of blues, jazz, bluegrass & folk influences. They've been making music together for fifty years, playing together as teenagers and later in the iconic '60s band The Jefferson Airplane, where Kaukonen played lead guitar and Casady was on bass.

Johnny Marr and James at Mcmenamins Crystal Ballroom

Johnny Marr and James

Legendary Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr and fellow British rock mainstays James have announced a massive double headline tour of North America this Fall!

Mass of the Fermenting Dregs
