DESCENDENTS

Doors: 7PM

Show: 8PM

Support: Radkey, Rehasher

 

Fueled by “rejection, food, coffee, girls, fishing and food,” the Descendents sprang up during the halcyon days of the Los Angeles punk scene; fusing the blind rage of hardcore with an unexpectedly wry, self-deprecating wit and a strong melodic sensibility that set them distinctly apart from their West Coast brethren. They gradually emerged as one of the most enduring and adored bands of their time. Formed in 1979, the Descendents initially sported an edgy power pop sound inspired by the Buzzcocks. Through ups nad downs and intermittent disbanding and rebanding, the Descendents returned in 2016 with Hypercaffium Spazzinate, their first new studio material in 12 years. The album delivers all those good Descendents feelings their fans love. “Each time we make a record it’s almost like the first time all over again,” says drummer Bill Stevenson.

Kamelot

Kamelot, Delain, ft. Lauderdale

with Delain & Battle Beast

Doors: 7:30PM

Kamelot’s release of their debut Eternity was praised by the music media as one of most promising debuts of all time. They went on to create many other albums all with striking results. Kamelot’s video “The Haunting” and “March of Mephisto” became huge hits on YouTube and prompted the band to launch their own YouTube channel, aptly titled KamTV. KamTV’s initial launch hurled the band into YouTube’s top 10 music channels and #1 Metal Channel, transcending all genres. Subsequently, Kamelot presented themselves more sinister and soulful on Ghost Opera and Poetry For The Poisoned, but have now returned to the melodic aspects of their multi-layered sound with the album, Silverthorn. The album, went directly to the top, debuting at the #1 position on Amazon’s Heavy Metal Chart! Along with this amazing accomplishment, Kamelot also impacted major charts in other categories including the #9 position on Billboard’s Hard Rock Chart, #24 on the Rock Charts, #79 on Billboard’s Top 200 Chart, as well as appearing on multiple international charts.

The Marcus Kind Band with special guest Bobby Lee Rdogers

Marcus King Band

Songwriter. Guitarist. Singer. Bandleader. At only 20 years of age, Marcus King’s dazzling musical

ability is evident throughout The Marcus King Band. Operating within the fiery brand of American

roots music that King calls "soul-influenced psychedelic southern rock," it highlights King’s gorgeous,

rough-hewn vocals, soaring guitar work and heartfelt songwriting all amidst a group of masterful

musicians who, together, are quickly becoming one of the country’s most sought after live acts. Raised in

Greenville, South Carolina, King was brought up on the blues, playing shows as a pre-teen sideman with

his father. Going beyond the sonic textures of his acclaimed 2015 debut; The Marcus King Band

broadens his sound, touching upon everything from funky R&B to Southern soul and Americana in the

process. His band gets in on the action too, stacking the songs with blasts of swampy brass, a lock-step

rhythm section and swirling organ. Ever the multi-tasker, King bounces between several instruments,

handling electric and acoustic guitar — as well as pedal and lap steel — while driving each track home

with his soulful, incendiary voice.

Boyce Avenue | Be Somebody World Tour

Boyce Avenue Fort Lauderdale October 8 2017

Florida’s Boyce Avenue are part of the millennial wave of artists who have used the Internet, rather than extensive touring, to get their music out to the masses. Consisting of brothers Alejandro, Fabian, and Daniel Manzano, the trio started making music together when Daniel returned to Florida after graduating from Harvard Law School. The brothers showcased their emotive, radio-friendly alt-rock on YouTube with a series of videos of them performing acoustic versions of their own songs as well as covers. In 2013, they joined the American version of The X Factor television series as vocal coaches and released the concert album Live in Los Angeles. By that same year, they had hit one billion views on YouTube, amassing millions of subscribers in the process. Their No Limits EP followed in 2014. In 2016, they released their 15th EP of cover songs, Cover Sessions, Vol. 2, which featured their takes on hits by Sam Smith, Adele, and Ed Sheeran, and even the Game of Thrones theme offered up with Spanish acoustic flair.
