Stabbing Westward Hit The Road For 30 Years Of ‘Wither Blister Burn & Peel’

0

Stabbing Westward are marking three decades of a fan favorite. The industrial rockers hit the road this summer to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their 1996 sophomore record ‘Wither Blister Burn & Peel,’ opening the brief U.S. run July 9 in Flint, Michigan at the Machine Shop. From there they roll through Indianapolis, Boston, Philadelphia, Millersville, and Asheville, stopping at venues like New York City’s Gramercy Theater, AMH in Amityville, The King of Clubs in Columbus, and Nashville’s Exit/In before wrapping July 25 at The Loft in Atlanta.

Priest and Acumen Nation provide support throughout the run. Tickets are on sale now via the band’s official website.

The album, which followed the band’s debut ‘Ungod,’ features “Shame,” “What Do I Have to Do?,” and “So Wrong.” To mark the milestone, Stabbing Westward will release a complete re-recording of the record, dubbed ‘Wither ReWired,’ due later this year.

Frontman Christopher Hall went in with mixed nerves. “The idea of reimagining Wither triggered equal amounts of excitement and trepidation for me,” he said, reflecting on how the music we hear young imprints on us forever, tangled up with the memories that came with it. Rather than try to top those memories, the band aimed somewhere else. “How could we ever hope to improve upon those memories? Well we can’t. And we didn’t try. We chose to create new ones. I hope everyone makes some new memories to these new songs.”

Bloc Party Add Five Headline Dates Ahead Of New Album ‘Anatomy of a Brief Romance

0

Bloc Party are carving out room for their own shows this summer. The English rockers have added five North American headline dates in July, slotted between their run supporting Muse. The headline leg opens July 8 in Nashville at The Ryman Auditorium, then heads to Montreal’s Theatre Beanfield on July 16.

The rest of the headline stops hit Cleveland on July 20 at Globe Iron, McKees Rocks on July 21 at the Roxian Theatre, and Richmond on July 27 at The National.

The timing is no accident. The run arrives just after the band unveiled their upcoming studio album ‘Anatomy of a Brief Romance,’ due September 11, which will serve as Bloc Party’s seventh studio record. It’s a strong moment for one of the most enduring names in 2000s indie rock.

Metal Heavyweights Arch Enemy And The Black Dahlia Murder Join Forces For A Fall Co-Headlining Run

0

Two titans of extreme metal are hitting the road together. Arch Enemy and The Black Dahlia Murder have announced a co-headlining North American tour for fall 2026, kicking off October 5 in Riverside, California at Municipal Auditorium. The run rolls through Denver, Houston, Orlando, Atlanta, New York, Philadelphia, Toronto, Chicago, and Vancouver before wrapping November 16 in Seattle at the Showbox.

Support comes from Septicflesh, Crypta, and Thrown Into Exile, making for a stacked bill top to bottom.

The run carries extra weight for Arch Enemy. It marks the band’s first North American tour since introducing new vocalist Lauren Hart, previously of Once Human, who replaced departing singer Alissa White-Gluz earlier this year. Hart made her live debut with the band during a spring tour in Asia, and this run gives North American fans their first chance to see her front the group.

The Black Dahlia Murder, meanwhile, come in hot off a recent U.S. tour with The Acacia Strain, Disembodied Tyrant, and Corpse Pile.

Presales start Wednesday, May 20 at 10 am local time through Ticketmaster, with general sales beginning Friday, May 22 at 10 am local time.

Country Heavyweights Gary Allan And Scotty McCreery Lead The 2026 Feels Like Home Festival

0

Country music, award-winning barbecue, and small-town Texas hospitality are coming back together. Feels Like Home Festival returns to Brownwood, Texas for its third year, taking over the historic Brownwood Event Center on Saturday, October 3, 2026, with a lineup led by Gary Allan, Scotty McCreery, Mark Chesnutt, Jack Ingram, and Caroline Hale.

The independently produced festival has quickly become one of Central Texas’ signature live music events, pairing country with award-winning Texas BBQ and a hospitality pitch that’s turned Brownwood into a fall destination. Organizers say the 2025 edition sold out, drawing fans from more than a dozen states and over 300 Texas communities.

The bill balances national names with deep Lone Star roots. Allan brings his gritty West Coast-meets-Nashville sound to the top of the lineup, while McCreery arrives as one of country’s most reliable modern hitmakers, having risen from American Idol winner to chart-topping artist. Chesnutt adds classic country credibility with 14 No. 1 hits, 23 Top 10 singles, and more than 12 million albums sold. Ingram brings decades of Texas country songwriting, and Austin-based Caroline Hale represents the genre’s next wave. It’s a smartly built lineup with something for every kind of country fan.

The fan experience is growing too. New for 2026 is a Platinum VIP Lounge with air conditioning, full bar access, and college football viewing throughout the day, plus an expanded VIP footprint with more room for chairs, dancing, and premium viewing. The BBQ program is also getting bigger, with more award-winning Texas pitmasters to be announced this summer and free sampling running from noon to 4 pm on the Grass Lawn alongside secondary-stage performances.

There’s more on offer beyond the music. The festival again features mechanical bull riding, axe throwing, brand activations, and other on-site experiences, plus increased main stage pit access for GA and VIP fans, festival re-entry before 5 pm, and complimentary shuttle service from six official hotel partners.

Tickets go on sale Friday, May 22 at 10 am CT at FeelsLikeHomeFest.com, with general admission starting at $64 plus taxes and fees. VIP and premium packages will also be available.

EDC Las Vegas Doubles Up For 2027 With A 12-Day “Dusk Till Dawn” Two-Weekend Experience

0

EDC Las Vegas is going bigger. Fresh off a 2026 edition that drew over 500,000 attendees to Sin City, the festival has announced it’s expanding to two weekends in 2027, building a 12-day stretch dubbed the Dusk Till Dawn Experience.

Insomniac founder Pasquale Rotella broke the news Tuesday night. “We’re expanding the EDC Las Vegas experience into 12 amazing days, with EDC Week and special events bridging two festival weekends,” he said, calling it something the team has been dreaming about for years.

The structure splits into two halves. The first weekend, EDC DUSK, runs May 14-16, 2027, followed by EDC DAWN from May 21-23, 2027. A series of EDC Week events connects the two across Las Vegas, totaling 12 days of activities. The lineup stays the same for both weekends and hasn’t been revealed yet.

Rotella framed the two-weekend split as a win for attendees. Lower capacity at each means less congestion on the roads, in the skies, and at the hotels, and he added that ticket prices are being lowered to what they were a decade ago to ease the cost of a Vegas trip. “I hope you can feel the excitement and see the vision for what DUSK TILL DAWN will become,” he said.

GA weekend tickets start at an all-in price of $399, while DUSK & DAWN GA passes covering both weekends start at $599 all-in.

Corona Capital just dropped one of the year’s biggest festival lineups. The 2026 edition lands in Mexico City with Gorillaz, The Strokes, and Twenty One Pilots set to headline the three-day event, which runs November 20 to 22 at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez. Organized by OCESA, the festival features more than 60 artists across multiple stages.

Gorillaz open things up Friday, November 20, leading a day that also brings Mumford & Sons, Daniel Caesar, James Blake, and The Kooks, plus CHVRCHES, CMAT, Absolutely, Anna Luna, and Chezile.

Saturday belongs to Twenty One Pilots. The day’s lineup also includes The Offspring, Pierce the Veil, Underworld, Mother Mother, Maisie Peters, and Peaches.

The Strokes close it out Sunday night, capping a final day that features The xx, Lola Young, Lil Yachty, Johnny Marr, The Black Crowes, and Manic Street Preachers. It’s a genuinely loaded bill from top to bottom.

Blondshell Maps Out A Fall “Scaring Strangers Tour” With A New Single In Hand

0

Blondshell is hitting the road and bringing new music with her. The indie favorite, the project of Sabrina Teitelbaum, has announced her Scaring Strangers Tour, a 13-date North American run this fall that kicks off October 14 at Observatory North Park in San Diego. From there she winds through Los Angeles, Seattle, Minneapolis, Chicago, Toronto, Philadelphia, Washington DC, and New York before closing the North American leg November 7 in Boston at House of Blues.

The trek keeps rolling overseas. A Europe and UK leg opens December 6 in Amsterdam, with stops in Berlin, Brussels, Paris, Manchester, Glasgow, and London before the final show on December 17 in Dublin at The Academy.

The announcement lands alongside a new single, “Heart Has to Work So Hard,” the first preview of Teitelbaum’s next album under the Blondshell name. It’s a sharp, promising taste of what’s coming from one of indie rock’s most compelling songwriters.

There’s plenty more before the headline run. Blondshell plays a string of festival dates this summer, including Bonnaroo on June 14 in Manchester, Tennessee, Summerfest on July 2 in Milwaukee, and Maha Festival on August 8 in Omaha. Tickets for the North American leg go on sale Friday, May 22 at 10 am local time via Ticketmaster.

Harry Styles Adds A Fourth Melbourne Night To His Massive “Together, Together” World Tour

0

Demand keeps climbing, so Harry Styles keeps adding shows. The pop hitmaker has tacked a fourth Melbourne concert onto his 2026 Together, Together world tour, set for Friday, December 4 at Marvel Stadium. It joins three previously announced Melbourne dates on November 27, November 28, and December 2, with two more Australian shows at Sydney’s Accor Stadium on December 12 and 13. Fousheé and Baby J support all the Australian dates.

General sales for the new Melbourne show begin Friday, May 22 at 11 am AEST through Styles’ official website, with an American Express presale starting Wednesday, May 20 at 11 am and a Live Nation presale on Thursday, May 21 at 11 am.

The Together, Together tour is a giant. It runs more than 60 shows worldwide, hitting Amsterdam, London, São Paulo, Mexico City, New York, Melbourne, and Sydney. Among the biggest runs is a 30-show residency at Madison Square Garden, which serves as Styles’ only U.S. performances on the tour.

The London leg is record territory. Styles is set to play 12 shows at Wembley Stadium, a run organizers say will set the mark for the most performances by a single artist at the venue in one calendar year.

The supporting lineup shifts city to city. Robyn appears in Amsterdam, Shania Twain backs select London shows, Jorja Smith joins the Mexico City lineup, and Jamie xx turns up during the New York residency.

Matt Mathews is going global for the first time. The comedian and online creator has announced his first international run, the 74-date Not What I Ordered World Tour, stretching from September 2026 through May 2027 across Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
