Scott Stapp delivers an awe-inspiring performance out on his Tour

August 18, 2016

  Earlier this week, Grammy award winning artist Scott Stapp brought his Tour to the McNears Mystic Theater in Petaluma, CA.  We have been looking forward for a couple years now to catching Scott out on tour and he truly blew us away. The night began with an energy rousing hard rockin set by Bridge To Grace. These four guys from Atlanta, GA were incredible as they fueled the crowd with adrenaline and a fierce set. Scott and his band took to the stage and delivered a magical awe inspiring performance. In an interview with Scott back in 2014, we talked about what he most looks forward to out on the road and he explained this feeling, “I look forward to this feeling that I get onstage… compared to an athlete being “in the zone”. It keeps me fired up and passionate and I want that feeling, and I strive to go to that place live where you almost feel like you are not in control but you have no fear. You feel you can hit every [Read More]

Alternative rockers, Bleeker bring the energy to the Concord Pavilion with their set last night

July 29, 2016

  Alternative rockers Bleeker from Canada delivered a high energy set last night at the Concord Pavilion. The band is currently out on tour with the Dirty Heads, Sublime with Rome and Tribal Seeds.  They kicked off the night with a punch of adrenaline that brought the crowd to their feet.  Temperatures at the Pavilion were nearing 100° but with Bleeker’s infectious energy, it got even hotter! Only a couple dates remain on the tour but I am sure it won’t belong for Bleeker to announce more show dates. 07/30 – Chula Vista, CA @ Sleep Train Amphitheatre  07/31 – Phoenix, AZ @ Comerica Theatre08/03 – Corpus Christi, TX @ Concrete Street Amphitheater We first saw Bleeker as they opened for The Struts out on their headlining tour  and we are pleased to announce that they will be playing once again with The Struts on two of their California dates in November! They always deliver a high energy set that blends the edge of alternative, fun-spirit of pop, and kick ass rock n roll. Make [Read More]

Red Tide Rising set to play at Full Throttle Saloon on August 5th with Sevendust and Crobot!

July 27, 2016

  Red Tide Rising which formed in 2007 when the members were still in junior high, has really proven that their hard work and determination has taken them to new levels. Their album The Rising might have had them break new ground but their latest release, Voices has given them the attention that they truly deserve. The EP is produced & co-written by Drowning Pool drummer Mike Luce (with the exception of “You’re Nothing” which was co-written with Luce and Ill Nino guitarist Ahrue Luster). Frontman Matthew Whiteman comments,  “Voices consists of the best music we have created as a band. We did so many different things in the studio that altered the RTR sound this time around. One of them was the vocal effects. We were able to capture a very heavy machine like vocal tone that adds another layer to the sound.”  Red Tide Rising are setting out on tour with Sevendust and Crobot. Tour dates are listed below: SEVENDUST / CROBOT / RED TIDE RIISNG 2016 KILL THE FLAW SUMMER TOUR 02 Aug – Bloomington, [Read More]
