Best Indie & Rock in October 2024

Bowling For Soup at Union Hall

Bowling For Soup

If you need a dose of unpretentious, instantly catchy pop-punk, then there are few better bands to see than Bowling for Soup. The quintet formed in the 1990s, and spent much of the decade cultivating a small but loyal following as their contemporaries (Green Day et al) took over the world. Get ready to have fun with Bowling For Soup this year!

Dropkick Murphys at Edmonton Convention Centre

Dropkick Murphys

The Dropkick Murphys are a Celtic punk band who count amongst their many influences bands such as The Pogues, The Clash, Stiff Little Fingers and AC/DC.

Neck Deep at Union 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.

Needtobreathe at Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium

Sebastian Bach at Union Hall

Sebastian Bach

The name Sebastian Bach may call to mind delightful Baroque interludes and powdered wigs, but during the 1980s, a hair rocker with long blonde locks, a rebellious attitude, and growling, powerhouse vocals rose to prominence and claimed the name for himself. Don't miss the iconic Canadian singer-songwriter as he hits the North American road once again!
