Recent tour reviews

Great show! I love this band and they are SO good live. The setlist was honestly pretty disappointing to me. I didn't feel like they played any of their top hits, a lot of the Men Amongst Mountains songs that I love weren't played (sad). But still a GREAT show!! Would see them again in a heartbeat.

I went to the show at The Anthem in Washington, DC this weekend. The Revivalists were phenomenal. They sounded as good, or BETTER, 'Live' than any recording I've heard of them. A friend got me interested in them a little over a year ago, and I've been listening to their music every day since. I had tickets this summer to their Wolf Trap show, but had to give them up for a family emergency. I was so disappointed that I had to miss the show. As the January tickets became available, I counted the days until this event. I had box seats and a perfect view. The Revivalists sound was so outstanding, I never stopped dancing, or singing for the entire show! Their music is intoxicating, and their showmanship was fabulous. As their set ended, I couldn't believe this great feeling was about to be over. Until, they came out for the encore songs! Hell Yeah! Best show I've ever been to!

The revivalists are a phenomenal band musically and terrific showmen. They write songs that are soulful and easy to sing along to. You will enjoy their music on the radio/albums but you do not get the true essence of this band until you see them live. You will fit in at their concert whether you’re 16 or 60. They put all their energy into every show and will not disappoint!

The Revivalists

Special guest:  DAWES

8:00 PM / Doors Open @ 6:30 PM

$96 / $80.50 / $56.00 plus applicable service charges

PASO ROBLES, Calif. – March 5, 2024 – Eight-piece rock 'n' roll collective The Revivalists are set to come to Vina Robles Amphitheatre, Wednesday, July 17 . Special guest, Dawes , will open. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster , Friday, March 8, at 10AM .

The Revivalists – David Shaw [lead vocals, guitar], Zack Feinberg [guitar], Andrew Campanelli [drums], George Gekas [bass], Ed Williams [pedal steel guitar], Rob Ingraham [saxophone], Michael Girardot [keyboard, trumpet], and PJ Howard [drums, percussion] – have made the journey from hole-in-the-wall gigs to sold-out shows at hallowed venues, multiplatinum success, more than 800 million streams, and major media praise.

Renowned for their live prowess, soulful alt-rock anthems, distinct mix of many of the classic styles of American music, and outward generosity through their philanthropic Rev Causes initiative, The Revivalists broke through with 2015's Men Amongst Mountains , which featured the double-platinum smash single and Billboard Hot 100 hit "Wish I Knew You.”

Their fifth album, Pour It Out Into The Night (Concord Records) is a life-affirming album about living in the moment, fueled by lessons in gratitude and life realizations. As the world came to a standstill in the years since their last album, Take Good Care, personal experiences and life challenges abounded, with band members having their first children, getting married, and navigating the mental hurdles of lockdown. On lead single "Kid" – a hopeful anthem about capturing the essence of life, self-belief, and living for the spirit – piano peeks through bright acoustic guitar as a bold beat powers the chantable chorus, "Hey kid, just sing the songs that wake the dead, then you keep them ringing in your head." “Kid” introduces an album that offers a nostalgic hopefulness rooted in living for who you are, an unburdening, and an appreciation for the here and now.

SunFest 2024 guide: Here's what to know on lineup, schedule, tickets, parking

SunFest's  multi-day, multi-stage waterfront musical festival returns May 3 to 5 in  West Palm Beach , bringing back popular attractions it cut in 2023 and introducing a slew of local acts.

After taking a seven-figure loss in 2023 for the fourth festival in a row, the biggest summer music festival in Florida is spending less on big music acts that eat into its budget while boosting dozens of small singers, bands, DJs and other artists from Palm Beach County and South Florida.

Ticket prices at the gate this year will be the same or lower than last year, when organizers cut it to three days, down from four between 2018 and 2022.

Gates open at 5 p.m. on Friday, May 3, and noon on Saturday and Sunday.

SunFest will once again have three stages after cutting to two in 2023. It will feature 20 local acts booked for the festival, which is expected to draw tens of thousands of people. It's also bringing back the Art Village, featuring rows of local artists along Flagler Drive selling colorful wares from their tents. Many fans felt dismayed when SunFest cut it from last year's festival.

This will be SunFest's 40th festival since it started in 1982. It was canceled in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19.

Here's everything you need to know ahead of the big music festival:

SunFest 2024: How much are tickets?

Three-day passes for teenagers and adults are on sale online at  sunfest.com/tickets  for $155 until Saturday, when early-bird pricing ends. The three-day price at the gate will cost $170, the same as last year.

Two-day passes are $140 until Saturday and will cost $160 at the gate.

The advance price for a single-day ticket is $80. Gate price, $82. Seniors age 65 and older can buy single-day passes at the gate for $60.

Children under 5 get in free with an adult ticket and tickets for children ages 6 to 12 are $50 for a one-day pass and $95 for a three-day pass, the same as last year.

Who is playing at SunFest 2024? Here is the music lineup schedule:

Traveling for the show.

2023 has been a whirlwind of a year for The Head And The Heart. The acclaimed Seattle band sold out the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre for the seventh time, co-headlined a tour with The Revivalists and then a second tour with Father John Misty, and held their own boutique two-day music festival in Napa, CA, Down in The Valley.

In 2022, the band released their fifth studio album Every Shade of Blue, headlined sold-out shows all over North America on their Every Shade of Blue 2022 North American Tour, and performed multiple times on national television, everywhere from The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon to performing at the championship banner drop for The Seattle Sounders.

Every Shade of Blue was produced by GRAMMY-award winning songwriter, producer and engineer Jesse Shatkin (Sia, Pink, The Shins, Tegan and Sara) except for album tracks “Shadows”, “Don’t Show Your Weakness” and “Love We Make” which were produced by Andrew Sarlo (Big Thief, Wet), and “Paradigm”, produced by John Hill and Sammy Witte (Florence + The Machine, Portugal The Man, Cage The Elephant), and mastered by Emily Lazar and Chris Allgood at The Lodge, NY.

Initially self-released in 2011, The Head and The Heart’s self-titled breakout debut produced instant classics including “Rivers and Roads,” “Down in the Valley” and “Lost in My Mind” (#1 at AAA) and is now certified Platinum. 2013’s Let’s Be Still and 2016’s Signs of Light settled into the top 10 of The Billboard 200 album chart, with Signs of Light securing the #1 position on Rock Album Charts, scoring the band’s first #1 at Alternative radio with “All We Ever Knew” and also holding the #1 spot at AAA for nine straight weeks. The band’s fourth full-length album, Living Mirage, was released to critical praise in 2019. “Missed Connection” reached the #1 position on the Alternative Chart as well as the Mediabase and BDS alternative charts, after having already achieved #1 on the AAA chart. The album’s breakout track, “Honeybee,” became a fan favorite with 153M+ total global streams and 1M+ global weekly streams. The Head and the Heart have appeared in Cameron Crowe’s Roadies, and their music has been featured in countless other commercials, films and TV, among them Corona, Silver Linings Playbook and more. The band is a touring powerhouse, having landed prime-time mainstage slots at Coachella, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits. The Head and the Heart has performed 18 times on national television, including appearances on Ellen, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, Austin City Limits, CBS Saturday Morning and more. Every Shade of Blue is the band’s fifth studio album.

• Depeche Mode

Aussie Depeche Mode fans are an incredibly patient bunch. The last time the British synth-pop titans toured the country was in 1994, meaning nearly three decades have passed since they last paid us a visit. But good things come to those who wait, and it seems there is a glimmer of hope for those hoping to catch the band Down Under.

In March 2023, Depeche Mode’s Dave Gahan told an Italian blog that the band were eyeing “as-yet-unannounced dates in Asia and Australia” as part of a touring run that would lead into 2024. The band have toured the world in support of their latest album, ‘Memento Mori’ , and a trip to Australia to cap off the jaunt seems more likely than ever.

Top concerts playing Phoenix in May 2024: Justin Timberlake, Luke Combs, Rolling Stones

We’ve got two huge tours playing State Farm Stadium in Glendale this month — the Rolling Stones on their first tour since losing drummer Charlie Watts in support of their first album of original material in nearly 20 years, and country singer Luke Combs, who required two nights at the stadium to meet demand for tickets to his latest tour.

There are also some massive arena tours headed our way, from Pepe Aguilar to Colombian musical sensation Feid to Romeo Santos reuniting Aventura and Justin Timberlake for the first time in five years.

And we’re not out of festival season yet, despite those rising temperatures.

The Flaming Lips will headline Pure Imagination on a bill that also features Tanya Tucker (two names rarely featured in a single sentence) while Boots in the Park returns to Tempe with Kane Brown as the main attraction.

Here’s a look at the biggest concerts coming to metro Phoenix in May 2024.

Sometimes known as the Latin Madonna, this Mexican-American singer found success on the Latin pop scene of the '80s, topping Billboard's Latin Songs chart with a 1990 cover of the Barbara George hit "I Know (You Don't Love Me No More)," titled "Ya No."

And they're still adding to that legacy. Their latest album, 2020's "Made of Rain," became their second-highest-charting UK album ever and appeared in year-end lists at Mojo, Uncut, Classic Pop and more. They're joined by roots-punk legends John Doe & Exene Cervenka of X.

The Rolling Stones

This is the Rolling Stones' third time at State Farm Stadium, their first since losing Charlie Watts, the jazz-loving, sharp-dressing drummer who died in 2021. Wondering whether this could be the last time is perhaps a bit more grounded in reality in 2024 than it was in 1989 when Mick Jagger was moved to respond to the question at a press conference announcing their tour in support of "Steel Wheels" with “First asked in 1966!” But don't mistake this for a pilgrimage. The Stones' last Valley show in 2019 was a wonderfully unpolished thrill, put across with the signature cocktail of swagger and reckless abandon they've been chasing all along. Plus, they're touring on their first new album of original material in nearly 20 years and it's as good as anything they've done since "Tattoo You" in 1981.

Details: 8 p.m. Tuesday, May 7. State Farm Stadium, 1 Cardinals Way, Glendale. $63 and up. 800-745-3000,  seatgeek.com .

They were the toast of the post-punk revival, topping Pitchfork's year-end album list in 2002 with their first album, "Turn on the Bright Lights," and following through with the just-as-likely-to-be-showered-in-comparisons-to-Joy-Division mainstream breakthrough, "Antics," in 2004. When their latest album hit the streets in 2022, Spin magazine responded with "'The Other Side of Make-Believe' maintains the charm and intrigue that made Interpol indie darlings 20 years ago, but it also finds the band aging gracefully — these brooding New York boys are now men who embrace their emotions." And don't miss the opening set by local shoegaze revivalists Glixen.

Fowler has been touring with the Stones for more than three decades.

This tour is said to be the last time Santos and Aventura will join forces on stage, offering an opportunity to relive the hits that defined an era in Latin music. Aventura took bachata to new heights while blending modern rhythms with the authentic essence of the genre. In a message to fans on social media, Santos said, "I want you to join me on a journey where I will be definitively closing cycles. Because it is not the same to remember beautiful times as it is to be a prisoner of the past. We cannot stagnate in the nostalgia of yesterday, but rather move forward, discover new horizons and show other facets.”

I caught this '80s icon revisiting "Kings of the Wild Frontier" in its entirety in Tucson in 2017 and it was everything a fan could hope to witness. As I wrote at the time: "As tempting as it may have been to make some sort of reference to 'Stand and Deliver' here, I will say that he did deliver, but he didn’t do much standing, dancing and working the stage with a youthful exuberance most entertainers half his age would do well to aspire to in his black leather pants and dashing pirate garb.” He's joined on the Antmusic 2024 Tour by fellow veterans of the New Wave years the English Beat.

Robin Wilson and Stephen Ashbrook

The Crescent Ballroom website has been billing this show as "iconic Phoenix alt-rock." And other than the fact that we'd have gone with Tempe, that seems right. Wilson is, of course, the singer for the legendary Gin Blossoms, who went from one of Mill Avenue's hottest reasons to get drunk to modern-rock radio hitmakers thanks to the quadruple-platinum success of 1992's "New Miserable Experience." Now based in Portland, Oregon, Ashbrook was another major player on the Tempe music scene that flourished in the '90s, fronting Satellite.

In a press release, Green said, “’Ain’t My Last Rodeo’ is inspired by what I know best: hard work, life outdoors and family and it’s going to be fun adding these new songs to our full set.”

Chris Isaak

The man has worn his share of hats since "Wicked Game" turned up in David Lynch's "Wild at Heart." He's been a talk-show host, a sitcom star, a SWAT commander in "The Silence of the Lambs," No. 68 on of VH1's list of sexiest artists and a singer whose music continues to embody the qualities that made his early records so evocative. "First Comes the Night," his latest non-holiday effort, finds Isaak channeling the sound and spirit of the Sun recording artists he saluted on "Beyond the Sun," especially Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley, while sounding more timeless than retro.

This is part of Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts' new outdoor concert series, where artists perform as night falls on the West Bowl and audiences relax in the grass. It's been a minute since Gabriel Sullivan and Brian Lopez of Tucson's XIXA member Brian Lopez began incorporating chicha, an intoxicating Peruvian blend of cumbias and psychedelic rock, into a sound they labeled mystic desert rock. On "Genesis," their latest full-length effort, those elements are filtered through their love of old Spaghetti Western scores, Tejano and a brooding vocal presence, courtesy of Sullivan, that often ventures into territory best described as gothic. They're joined by Phoenix-based Latin folk fusion band Medio Pinto.

Waxahatchee

The Telegraph hailed Katie Crutchfield's latest Waxahatchee album, "Tigers Blood," as "another beautiful slice of country-tinged magic that never descends into nostalgia." This is true. It's also true that "Tiger's Blood" finds the American stalwart, as NME wrote, "at the top of her game." And the top of Crutchfield's game is pretty daunting stuff. The Skinny praised her previous release, "Saint Cloud," as "the high watermark of modern Americana, gorgeous in its arrangements and sumptuous in its emotional literacy."

When he’s not playing bass in Ty Segall’s band Fuzz, Chad Ubovich is carrying the torch for psychedelic music at the helm of Meatbodies, whose latest album, “Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom,” eases the listener into the acid with the trance-inducing stoner rock of “The Assignment,” one of four tracks on this headphone record for the ages that passes the six-minute threshold without wearing out its welcome. As Dusted magazine sums it up, “It is a sprawling, roaring, wild beast of an album.” And there’s no reason to believe it won’t be even better live, especially in a room the size of Rebel Lounge.

Marcus King

The young blues guitarist is touring the States in support of “Mood Swings,” a new album produced by Rick Rubin. Drawing on King’s darkest moments, the album became a beacon of hope for King, who once believed he was destined to die at his own hand, as he created it. A review in Variety suggested that "the album can overall best be described as: What if Al Green also played a mean axe and made a record about dealing with anxiety and depression?” Rolling Stone was equally impressed, saying, "The lyrical conventions of a hand-me-down genre are enlivened with genuinely personal urgency."

Wednesday's "Rat Saw God" was arguably last year's finest hour by an artist you could reasonably label "rock," an unvarnished treasure that effortlessly blurs the lines between Americana, indie-rock and shoegaze in a feedback-laden squall of sound, at times descending into pure cacophony as it does on "Bull Believer," where Karly Hartzman's tortured howls are underscored by utter chaos. As Sputnikmusic raved: "Without polish or overproduction, Wednesday sound is a powerful exclamation of a narrative, full of noise, beauty, and deeply relatable feelings and stories. It may not feel perfect, but it’s real." I would, however, argue that it couldn't hope to feel more perfect than it does.

No Ripcord heard the album as a huge step forward, writing, "It’s not simply an incremental improvement. It’s a quantum leap. As far as third albums go, it’s their 'Forever Changes,' 'Summerteeth,' and 'The Meadowlands' rolled into one ... It truly is one for the ages."

The L.A.-based indie-rock veterans brought home raves in 2022 for "Radiate Like This," their first release in nearly six years, arriving 12 years after their acclaimed debut. Mojo hailed it as their finest work to date while Record Collector called it "an unmitigated joy" in the course of a review that raved "The four women click and connect in a way so rare that theoretically you could put the four greatest musicians in the world in a room and this level of rhythmic transcendence just wouldn’t happen." That's high praise.

"Diamond Destroyer of Death," these local rockers' latest effort, is a modern masterpiece of psychedelic chamber pop that feels a bit like an album-length suite. There's a dynamic range that guarantees the moments meant to be majestic are, in fact, a thing of wonder, from the time they hit you with the cinematic splendor of the chorus that appears as if by magic on an opener called "Copperfield," when Owen Evans tells you "I can make the world disappear." And it kind of does disappear for the length of the album that transports you to a world of Evans' making.

Cloud Nothings

Cloud Nothings really came into their own on 2012's "Attack on Memory," an explosive assault on the senses produced by Steve Albini, a man whose reputation rests on capturing that sort of racket. Twelve years later, they're touring the States in support of "Final Summer," an album whose electrifying sound is topped by Dylan Baldi’s impassioned delivery of songs that filter heartache through a ray of hope to cathartic effect. As he puts it on the title track, “I need to be happy with what I've got for me." And as No Ripcord rightly notes,  the album “comes rich with gargantuan hooks that make you feel alive.”

Tolkien's Middle-earth, are back in the States at the helm of the Metal Crushes All Tour, their biggest North American tour to date, with special guests Cannibal Corpse, Obituary, and Frozen Soul. Their breakthrough album, "Twilight of the Thunder God," was No. 6 on Metal Hammer's countdown of 2008's best albums. Kerrang! said 2022's "The Great Heathen Army" was "perhaps the strongest collection" they've released since then.

Maggie Rogers

Rogers is headed our way in support of "Don’t Forget Me" on a tour that features special guests the Japanese House, the critically acclaimed project of Amber Bain. She headlined M3F Fest in 2023, telling the crowd, "This is my first time ever headlining a festival in the United States.” It was a shocking revelation, given the total command of the stage the former Best New Artist Grammy nominee displayed in that performance. It seems she’s something of a natural, contagious, energetic presence with the kind of voice that’s bound to stop a person in their tracks with its passion and power.

The Color 8

The Color 8 have been mashing up genres, from metal to R&B, jazz, reggae, hip-hop and punk, since 2015. On “Tryna Get Paid,” their latest effort, highlights range from the punkish intensity of an EP-opening collaboration with the Dropout Kings to the soulful chorus hook of the majestic title track and the EP-closing hip-hop slow jam comparing your love to narcotics. A local four-piece consisting of saxophonist Ashton Vaughn Charles, drummer Wisco3, aptly named guitarist Kal the Guitar Hero and bassist Jerm, they’ve amassed more than 160,000 followers on social media and thousands of monthly listeners on streaming platforms.

Blackberry Smoke

These Southern-rock standard bearers are touring the States in support of "Be Right Here," a great new album Uncut called "a minor classic of the genre." Classic Rock magazine praised the songwriting, starting its review with "Can it really be 20 years since Blackberry Smoke rolled up to the back porch looking like they’d just fallen off the back of a pick-up truck and were willing to work for food? As the adage goes, they’ve come a long way since then, although geographically they’re still based pretty close to the homes they grew up in."

Several pedestrians hit during string of crashes in bridgeport, news world news, russia arrests another suspect in the concert hall attack that killed 144.

`MOSCOW (AP) — A Moscow court has detained another suspect as an accomplice in the attack by gunmen on a suburban Moscow concert hall that killed 144 people in March, the Moscow City Courts Telegram channel said Saturday.

Dzhumokhon Kurbonov, a citizen of Tajikistan, is accused of providing the attackers with means of communication and financing. The judge at Moscow’s Basmanny District Court ruled that Kurbonov would be kept in custody until May 22 pending investigation and trial.

Russian state news agency RIA Novosti said Kurbonov was reportedly detained on April 11 for 15 days on the administrative charge of petty hooliganism. Independent Russian media outlet Mediazona noted that this is a common practice used by Russian security forces to hold a person in custody while a criminal case is prepared against them.

Twelve defendants have been arrested in the case, including four who allegedly carried out the attack at the Crocus City Hall concert venue, according to RIA Novosti.

Those four appeared in the same Moscow court at the end of March on terrorism charges and showed signs of severe beatings. One appeared to be barely conscious during the hearing. The court ordered that the men, all of whom were identified in the media as citizens of Tajikistan, also be held in custody until May 22.

A faction of the Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for the massacre in which gunmen shot people who were waiting for a show by a popular rock band and then set the building on fire. But Russian officials including President Vladimir Putin have persistently claimed, without presenting evidence, that Ukraine and the West had a role in the attack.

Ukraine denies involvement and its officials claim that Moscow is pushing the allegation as a pretext to intensify its fighting in Ukraine .
