The Marshall Tucker Band rocked The Guild in Menlo Park hard for 90 minutes on Friday night, turning in a 14-song performance that was an absolute testament to both the lasting greatness of this South Carolina troupe and the power of Southern rock. Following a winning opening set from Sofia Claire a promising country music vocalist who hails from right up the road in Redwood City the headliners took the stage and immediately busted into the title track from 1979's Running Like the Wind.
Dropkick Murphys brought their 2026 "St. Patrick's Day Tour" to the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, on Friday, February 13th, playing a career-spanning 23-song set. The veteran Massachusetts band has been making headlines for protesting ICE and denouncing the Trump administration in recent months and years, but, for the most part, the 90-minute show was a punk-rock celebration.
On a stage in Edinburgh, thick with dry ice, a bus shelter materialises and a man in black steps out. Mike Skinner, AKA the Streets, has come to take us back in time. Pint in his right hand, mic in his left, he begins: It was supposed to be so easy And just like that it's 2004 again. Had he been trying to court a mass audience, Skinner wrote in his memoir, I certainly wouldn't have made a concept album about someone losing
If you'd been traveling down Valencia Street on Sunday afternoon, you might have seen a 100-boomer-long procession snaking down the sidewalk in the light drizzle, its umbrella-toting occupants looking halfway like mourners. As one among the age 50-, 60- and 70-and-up gathered, I can verify: Our line was not for a funeral. On Sunday, though, between the setlist, the 400-capacity room and the 3 p.m. start time, well, this was a one-of-a-kind Van Morrison show. That much was evident after he took the stage and - just two minutes into set opener "Kidney Stew Blues" - Morrison turned to his seven-piece band, and ... cracked a smile and laughed?!?
In the midst of Grammy weekend, New Edition's L.A. tour stop at the Kia Forum on Saturday was a forceful statement on longevity and a reminder never to underestimate the power of R&B. Seeing all six members of the iconic vocal group on stage for a sold-out crowd more than four decades after their careers began reflects a group still fully present, with a visible love for the music they continue to perform.
Alemán, originally from Cabo San Lucas, has toured most of South America, bringing his Spanish-language rap to millions of fans. According to Spotify, Alemán is 2026's most popular Mexican rapper. Gera MX, originally started by freestyling on the streets of San Luis Potosí and then joined the collective, the Mexamafia. But it was his co-penned "Botella Tras Botella" that was the first Mexican single to break into the US Billboard Top 100.
The last time Dave Grohl celebrated his birthday at a Los Angeles concert was 2015, and I was there for that one, too. The show was massive: surprise guests, spectacle, the whole deal. Last night at the Kia Forum felt deliberately smaller, if you can call anything in an 18,000-seat arena small. No overproduction, no novelty moments, no parade of spectacle. Just Foo Fighters in their element.
Foreigner rocked the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, on Thursday night, December 4th. As an added treat, they were joined onstage by original singer Lou Gramm for a handful of songs. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame act is sporting a new look these days, with Luis Maldonado taking over lead vocals for longtime singer Kelly Hansen, who retired from the band earlier this fall. Maldonado previously served as Foreigner's guitarist, after joining the band in 2021.
While many Americans are just now discovering reggaeton, Puerto Rican artist Yandel has been writing genre hits for over 20 years. As one half of the duo Wisin & Yandel, they began performing in 1998 and released their first major label debut only five years after. However, Yandel has also had his own successful solo career and this weekend he's taking it to another level when he brings a full band and entire dance crew to the Civic.
In 1985, Andy Bell was selling women's shoes when he responded to a newspaper ad looking for a singer. A year later his new band Erasure was celebrating their first hit single, "Sometimes." Of course, Erasure would turn out to be one of the hottest bands in the 1980s with songs like "A Little Respect," "Always" and "Oh L'amour." In 2005 he released his solo debut Electric Blue, further evolving his signature sound.
Presented by San Jose Jazz, the Break Room is an all ages pop up venue where fans can see unique artists in a temporary setting for a show unlike any other.
As an impatient slow-clap echoes around west London's iconic Royal Albert Hall the star is running 45 minutes late a seemingly nonplussed Nicole Scherzinger suddenly appears in spotlight, drenched in sparkly diamonds. Having built a career out of overcoming obstacles breaking out of the shackles of both a girlband (the 55m-selling Pussycat Dolls) and various TV talent show judging panels a little polite animosity isn't going to rain on her parade.

The devil, the Statue of Liberty, a glamorous cowgirl, a construction worker, Joan of Arc: These are the dominant archetypes of the costume-clad at Forest Hills Stadium, all here for night two of Chappell Roan 's four-night run. Walking through the venue, I spot not one but two guys dressed as Lady Liberty whose bodies are entirely painted an ashy shade of green;
When I arrived at the Brooklyn Paramount right before doors opened for Yungblud 's headlining concert on Tuesday night (September 16th), the scene outside already said everything about what this night meant. The general admission line had completely wrapped around the block, and for the first time I'd ever seen, the VIP line stretched a couple hundred feet past the entrance.

When electronic-ambient-new age pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre was working on 1976's Oxygene, in his makeshift home studio, he often had to tape down two preset buttons of his Korg drum machine to achieve the effect he wanted. Thanks to the breakout success of that record and its winning blend of bright keyboard melodies and warped analog synths, Jarre didn't have to resort to such ad-hoc methods for long.
Yet, what made this particular Ozzy shoutout so special was that came from an indie-pop act better known for twee neo-psychedelia than hard-hitting heavy metal. And, yet, the Lips took on the legendary anti-war anthem with complete commitment, thundering through "War Pigs" in a fashion that likely would've impressed even Black Sabbath mastermind (and godfather of heavy metal) Tony Iommi himself.
Fresno-based Haunt play metal. Just metal. Not doom, black, speed, death, glam, or any of the other countless subgenres that have sprouted up. This is metal for fans of Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Tesla, and other traditional metal bands. Trevor William Church already had his band, the excellent Beastmaster to meet his doom needs, a genre that showcases his Ozzy-esque vocals. He started Haunt to get back to basics.
Hailing from San Francisco, Bululú brings a tropical, Latin vibe to the Bay Area. And this weekend, they will be playing a free show with Salinas' Flaco El Jandro y Sus Perros Callejeros (who mix punk, cumbia, and soul) and El Pecado de Juana (a Bay Area Bolero rock trio) for a celebration of Latin and Chicano music and culture.
One of the Arab world's most influential contemporary artists is coming to Campbell's Heritage Theatre on Sept. 7. Hamza Namira is an Egyptian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose music rose to prominence during the 25 January revolution in 2011, a day of nonviolent protests against increasing police brutality during the last few years of Hosni Mubarak's presidency. Namira participated in the demonstrations and was considered the "Voice of the Revolution." His music is marked by sociopolitical themes.
G-Dragon, the King of K-Pop.Photo: GALAXY CORPORATION G-Dragon brought the drama, standing amongst a crowd of about 16,000 people on a pedestal wearing a golden gown and wrapped in a rose-covered jacket, with pyrotechnics shooting through the air and his talented dance team. The entire arc of his performance, featuring 20 songs, many of which were from his new album Ubermensch, along with several classic hits, was told in a dramatic sequence of colors.
It happened outside Long Island's Stephen Talkhouse, under a 500-capacity tent, where the band ripped through a 13-song set loaded with classics. They also paid tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, with Kirk Hammett and Robert Trujillo jamming "Crazy Train" for their nightly "doodle." "This reminds us of the club days," James Hetfield told the crowd, as Rolling Stone points out. "Getting hot and sweaty and up close and personal."
Supercrush embodies a sunshiney melodic hard-rocking power pop sound reminiscent of '70s driving music, filled with catchy melodies and upbeat energy.
