On July 10, 2026, the State Theatre in Portland, Maine, welcomed The Disco Biscuits for a two-set concert attended by hundreds of fans. It was an exceptional night of music, and the band delivered a phenomenal performance. Formed in 1995, the group is one of the most popular jam bands in the United States. Embracing modern technology, The Disco Biscuits incorporate elements from a variety of musical genres while maintaining a foundation rooted in electronic and rock music.

Lionel Richie and Earth, Wind, and Fire proved their legendary status at Hartford’s People’s Bank Arena. From the first notes of Earth, Wind, and Fire’s Shining Star to Richie’s final song of the evening, All Night Long, the audience was on their feet, singing every lyric and dancing in every space. It was an ecstatic moment as the music spanned generations and decades of musical history.

Some concerts feel like a night out. The Summer School Tour at Archer Music Hall on July 8 felt more like spending an afternoon discovering your next favorite band. Despite the summer heat outside, fans started filling the venue early for a lineup that stretched across the evening. The show kicked off earlier than most, giving five bands plenty of time to introduce themselves to a crowd that leaned noticeably younger than the average concert crowd.

There's a particular kind of quiet that only certain rooms can hold, and Union Chapel in Islington is one of them. Stone, stained glass, wooden pews worn soft by decades of use as both a chapel and live events venue. On this merit alone it sounds sacred, so add Keb' Mo', a guitar and a harmonica and you know you’re in for something very special.

Twenty-six years ago, I fell in love with live music. It wasn’t my first concert, but I saw Counting Crows in Wolverhampton, and it blew my mind. The music was the music I had loved for years, and the crowd were bringing 110% like at any other concert, but this was different. Frontman Adam Duritz took to the stage at Wolverhampton Civic Hall and bared his poetic soul to all. Classic hits were amended to meet his feelings of the day; famous album tracks extended through musica

Rainbow Kitten Surprise played at Vibrant Music Hall in Waukee, IA June 8th, 2026, to a packed house with no opener bringing a more intimate feel to a large venue. The first thing you need to know before you go see RKS is Ela's (lead singer) voice is somehow even better live. This is a band that brings true synergy and emotion to the stage. The relationship this band has with each other shines through their performance on stage.

There's something special about seeing an artist on the rise in a venue as intimate as Òran Mór, and Alana Springsteen proved exactly why she's becoming one of country music's brightest young stars. Playing to a packed-out Glasgow crowd, she delivered a performance that felt personal, energetic and, at times, more like a celebration between friends than a concert.

There's something different about a hometown headline show. The anticipation feels greater, the atmosphere feels louder and every person in the room seems invested in seeing one of their own succeed. That was exactly the feeling inside Audio on Friday night as Glasgow's own KURO took to the stage for what would become one of those gigs that leaves everyone walking out with a smile on their face.

Normally, an outdoor festival at the end of June sounds like the perfect time to host a music festival. Most years, it falls just before the hottest part of the summer and usually means we're past the wet season. Portland, Oregon, apparently didn't get the message that summer had started, as Sublime Fest was treated to what was probably the heaviest rain of the year. But that didn't stop the festival as it took over Tom McCall Waterfront Park and proved that Pacific Northw

From a cursory perspective, the actions that Greg Mendez takes while performing on stage may be misconstrued as nonchalance. Whether it's the casual toss of the phone after appearing onstage and sitting in his chair, consistently asking the audience what time it was, or the lack of any real banter outside of an occasional thank you, it really is just Mendez, his guitar and a keyboard for about 75 minutes.

Seventeen years is a long time to wait for a Nashville return. From June 25-27, Superdrag didn't just come back to Nashville. They turned Eastside Bowl into the center of the Superdrag universe. Fans flew in from every corner of the country for what's became known as "Destination Superdrag," a three-night celebration that felt more like a family reunion than a concert series.

In an interview with Loudwire in April, Momsen said,”...It almost has this feel of it [being] directly ripped out of my diary. You're really getting the inside of how my mind works on this one." She’s not wrong. Gone is the ambiguity in the songwriting, giving the listener more of a direct line to the vulnerability and assertiveness Momsen poured into the lyrics.

Domani's Forever Lasting Tour stopped at The Echo on June 23, 2026, with DJ Jonny Kaine, Reuben Vincent, and King Harris opening the night before the headliner took the stage. DJ Jonny Kaine kept the room moving between sets, mixing tracks and interacting with the audience instead of simply filling time. Reuben Vincent followed with a confident set that kept the momentum going as the venue continued to fill.

From June 25–27, 2026, Norwich, Connecticut, hosted the Rose Arts Festival, a free, family-friendly event showcasing local artisans, artists, nonprofit organizations, musicians, performers, and more.

It brought people from Norwich and beyond together to enjoy the arts, drawing thousands of festivalgoers throughout the weekend.

n June 24, 2026, Moon Taxi, G. Love, and Donavon Frankenreiter took the stage at Tree House Brewing Company in South Deerfield, Massachusetts.

I’ve seen a lot of incredible vocalists over the years, but after seeing Spiritbox and Evanescence together, I’m still thinking about just how unreal the night was. Spiritbox came out ready to go from the first song. Courtney LaPlante somehow makes the impossible look effortless, switching from beautiful melodies to brutal screams. The entire band is full of pure talent and the energy coming off the stage kept building with every song.

The Summer School Tour ’26 brought together six of the most exciting names in the pop-punk scene for a night built around community, loud guitars, and nonstop energy. Featuring Pretty Pity, Chase Petra, South Arcade, Games We Play, Winona Fighter, and Honey Revenge, the lineup proved that pop-punk is alive and well. From the moment the doors opened until the final encore, the crowd barely stopped moving—you could even hear the music from outside the venue.

On Tuesday June 30th Godsmack brought their "The Rise of Rock" World Tour to the Empower Supporting Godsmack on this hot and steamy night were the Stone Temple Pilots & Dorothy. This tour has been spread out over several months: first, a 14-date run from May 7th to May 30th mostly through the southern states, this was followed by a 13-date run from June 12th to July 3rd in the central & eastern parts.

Walking into The Palladium always feels like coming home. I've been attending shows here for over 20 years, and every visit brings back a wave of nostalgia. From the moment I walked through the doors, the experience reminded me why this venue remains one of New England's best.

There are certain albums that instantly take you back to a moment in your life, and for so many fans, Bleed American is one of them.
