Hootie and the Blowfish at Colonial Life Arena

Hootie and the Blowfish

Hardly needing an introduction, Hootie and the Blowfish were a quintessential component of the 90s rock scene. They even feature on a (now classic) episode of Friends - and we all know that that show is the epitome of all things 90s. If you're still reeling from their break-up, you'll be very excited to hear that they are back together, ready to head on an extensive tour in 2024! Will you be one of the lucky ones to see Hootie and the Blowfish live in concert once more?

Koe Wetzel at Colonial Life Arena

Koe Wetzel

Trading a stetson for a trucker cap, Texas wild child Koe Wetzel does country music his way. A resident of the Lone Star State, he fuses the raw, hillybilly East Texas country music of his upbringing with a punk rock spirit and bro-country hooks, all wrapped up in a fun-loving persona that makes for a party atmosphere at his live shows. Now, he's taking his country smash-hits all across America with the Damn Near Normal Tour.

Brett Dennen at New Brookland Tavern

Brett Dennen

Californian folk sophomore Brett Dennen is back on the road! A self-taught singer and musician from an early age, Dennen's creative upbringing at home allowed him to compose his own music during his teens, and then to inspire others at summer camp. His 2004 self-titled debut album was well-received when a burned copy found its way to Apple executive Denzyl Feigelson, leading to a record contract with Dualtone Records.

The Wallflowers at The Senate

Expect to hear fan favorites, including the Billboard 100 charter, Sleepwalker.

Anthony Hamilton at Township Auditorium

Anthony Hamilton

With a voice as smooth as the glowing embers of a dying fire and a glass of pinot noir, Anthony Hamilton is the king of modern Soul and RnB.

The Mountain Goats at The Senate

The Mountain Goats

Despite his pluralized moniker, John Darnielle remains the sole driving force of Californian indie pop-rock outfit The Mountain Goats. With an ever-evolving roster of live and recording musicians surrounding him, Darnielle revels in his goth-tinged melancholy, fusing a winning combination of wry insight and black humor in his lyrics (which earned him the accolade of 'America's best non-hip-hop artist' by the New Yorker) with lingering melodic hooks and satisfying songcraft. This year, Darnielle brings his spell-binding songwriting to venues across America once more.

Juvenile at The Senate
