Best Indie & Rock Tonight

in San Diego

Ben Folds at Epstein Family Amphitheater

Ben Folds

The frontman of his self-named band, rock artist and producer Ben Folds continues to work with some of the most eclectic names in music and entertainment (remember his Common People cover that featured William Shatner and Bill Clinton?), as well as pushing the envelope on alt-rock ever further. A self-confessed enigma, he prefers to stay out of the limelight except when touring, but can easily claim credit for some of music's most unlikely trends.

Future Islands at The Sound

Future Islands

Up until 2014, Future Islands were an acclaimed, but lesser known synth-pop band from Baltimore, but that all changed with their appearance on David Letterman's Late Show. Not only was lead singer Samuel Herring's dancing the stuff that memes' dreams are made of, but the song they played, 'Seasons (Waiting on You)', was obviously something special. Later named by Pitchfork as the best track of the year, 'Seasons' proved to be the band's breakthrough, and they now stand as one of the indie world's most respected groups.

Dogstar at Events Center At Harrahs Resort SoCal

Dogstar

This year, the '90s alt-rock band Dogstar is returning to the stage on the Summer Vacation Tour 2024. You might recognize their bassist, John Wick star Keanu Reeves! With stops across North America, including Las Vegas, Kansas City, Columbia, and many more, Dogstar is ready to give you a summer to remember!
