Best Indie & Rock in October 2024

Todd Rundgren at VBC Mars Music Hall

Todd Rundgren

Rock 'n' roll icon, guitarist, interactive progenitor, singer/songwriter, and record producer Todd Rundgren comes to town in 2024. Years of experience and critical acclaim have by no means made Rundgren complacent, and he continues to push the boundaries in inventive and surprising ways. Don't miss your chance to see him as he heads on the 'Me/We' tour!

Billy Strings at Orion Amphitheater

Billy Strings

Bluegrass singer and guitarist Billy Strings released his first album 'Rock of Ages' in 2013 at the age of 21. He has gone on to be awarded the Momentum Award for Instrumentalist of the year by The International Bluegrass Music Association in 2016 and be named as one of the Top Ten New Country Artists to Know by Rolling Stone in 2017.

Rainbow Kitten Surprise at Orion Amphitheater

Rainbow Kitten Surprise

Rainbow Kitten Surprise may sound like the title of a Japanese game show, but the band's mature, genre-defying sound is as surprising as their choice of moniker. Drawing upon facets of grunge, alt-rock, blues and unapologetic pop, the North Carolina natives craft upbeat anthems that underlie lead singer Sam Melo's poetic, howling lyrics and vocals.

Neck Deep at VBC Mars Music Hall

Neck Deep

Welsh alt-rockers Neck Deep are heading across the pond this fall in support of their recently released self-titled album with The Home Team and Super American in support! Calling to mind the glory days of Blink 182, New Found Glory and Fall Out Boy, the quartet have risen to the forefront of the current pop-punk revival with supercharged teen anthems comprised of fuzzy power chords, pounding drums and hook-laden melodies.
