Thursday, March 28 at 8 p.m. (doors 7:30 p.m.) 

In the late '80s, the Gin Blossoms started to grow a huge following as the No. 1 local music draw in Phoenix and certainly were the hometown heroes of their favorite hangouts in Tempe. 
 
The Gin Blossoms' indelible jangle-pop sound was evolving during a time when radio featured a diverse mix of hair bands and grunge acts. They qualified to perform at the South By Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas, in 1989. That same year, College Music Journal dubbed them “The Best Unsigned Band In America” and added an invitation to perform on MTV’s New Music Awards in New York City. Their breakout record, "New Miserable Experience," kept the band on the chart for almost three years, with singles “Hey Jealousy,” “Allison Road,” "Until I Fall Away,” “Mrs. Rita” and “Found Out About You.” "New Miserable Experience" played on four radio formats and, to date, has sold over 5 million copies.

Superstar sibling trio The Band Perry are an unstoppable presence in modern music. After selling two and a half million albums and 13 million singles and racking up over 1.75 billion combined streams of their songs, the story of Kimberly, Reid and Neil is evolving. Since releasing their groundbreaking crossover No. 1 single “If I Die Young” in 2010 (with its current sextuple-platinum status and 160 million video views), The Band Perry has forged a unique, genre-defying identity and built an international fan base leading to sold-out world tours, five No. 1 singles on the Billboard Country Chart, a No. 1 single on the Hot AC chart, six songs reaching gold or platinum status, and in 2015, bringing home their first Grammy Award. 

They’ve performed on TV’s biggest stages and their track “Live Forever" was the official theme song for Team USA at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Known for their boundary-pushing live performances, the band’s combination of music, fashion and visual art has become a hallmark of their dialogue with their fans and with culture. Their creative efforts boast collaborations with artistic luminaries such as Steven Klein, Nicola Formichetti and Neil Krug. Their next era promises to see the band expanding these boundaries yet again. 

Most excitingly, The Band Perry have released a highly-anticipated new collection of 5 songs titled "Coordinates", which has received overwhelming acclaim from fans. Music industry icon Rick Rubin executive produced the collection. The band wrote and produced the songs themselves via their Artrat creative house and production collective.
