The Gaslight Anthem
Presented by United Concerts at The Depot September 16, 2010 The Gaslight Anthem rose out of the fertile punk scene of New Brunswick, NJ, flaunting a unique style that melded the influence of Bruce Springsteen, Wilson Pickett, and various Motown groups with the rough, emotional grit of Hot Water Music and Jawbreaker. The band, comprised of vocalist/guitarist Brian Fallon, bassist Alex Levine, drummer Benny Horowitz, and guitarist Alex Rosamila, began establishing a hometown audience after forming in 2005, and their soulful punk rock attracted wider...

Built to Spill
Presented by United Concerts at The Depot September 17, 2010 Built to Spill were one of the most popular indie rock acts of the '90s, finding the middle ground between postmodern, Pavement-style pop and the loose, spacious jamming of Neil Young. From the outset, the band was a vehicle for singer/songwriter/guitarist Doug Martsch, who revived the concept of the indie guitar hero just as Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis another important influence was beginning to fade from the limelight. On record, Martsch the arranger crafted intricate, artfully knotted tangles...

Hot Hot Heat
Presented by Postfontaine at In The Venue September 18, 2010 See Hot Hot Heat at In The Venue! Hey Rosetta! will open. Beginning as a noisy, synth-based combo in 1999, Victoria, British Colombia's Hot Hot Heat evolved into an aggressively catchy indie rock band two years later, when keyboardist Steve Bays took on the vocal duties, and guitarist Dante DeCaro joined their ranks. The group's new lineup ? which also featured founding members Paul Hawley on drums and Dustin Hawthorne on bass ? brought a newfound sense of melody and witty wordplay to their...

Band of Horses
Presented by Postfontaine at In The Venue September 28, 2010 Emerging in 2004 with a woodsy blend of midtempo rock and reverb-laden vocals, Band of Horses gained an audience in their native Northwest before Everything All the Time made them indie rock darlings. Multi-instrumentalists Ben Bridwell and Mat Brooke founded the group after an eight-year run with Carissa's Wierd, and an early concert alongside future labelmates Iron and Wine caught the attention of Sub Pop Records.

Hanson
Presented by The Depot at The Depot September 30, 2010 See Hanson on tour in support of their upcoming release, Shout It Out, at The Depot. Sounding like a revamped Jackson 5 for the '90s, Hanson came storming out of Tulsa, OK, in 1997 blessed with photogenic looks and a surprisingly infectious sense of melody. Hanson had a sunny pop sense that stood in direct contrast to the gloomy grunge that dominated the '90s, yet they also arrived with hip credentials ? a handful of the cuts on their debut were produced by the Dust Brothers (Beastie...

Umphrey's McGee
Presented by United Concerts at The Depot October 1, 2010 A jam band coming out of the Midwest in the mid-'90s, Umphrey's McGee edged toward the Frank Zappa side of the improv rock scale, as opposed to the Grateful Dead/Allman Brothers Band direction espoused by many of their contemporaries, like the Big Wu. The members of Umphrey's McGee met at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, IN.

UB40
Presented by United Concerts at The Depot October 2, 2010 Named after a British unemployment benefit form, pop-reggae band UB40 was formed in a welfare line in 1978, and its multiracial lineup reflected the working-class community its members came from. The band consolidated its street credibility with political topics appealing to dissatisfied youth and got a boost from fans of the waning 2-Tone ska revival movement. Brothers Robin (lead guitar) and Ali Campbell (guitar, lead vocals) formed the centerpiece of the group, which also included bassist...

He released "Cocaine Raps" and "Raven in My Eyes" simultaneously on the Dogday imprint, but it was the trilogy of 1999's Tears of a Clown and 2000's These R the Tales and Daiquiri Factory Cocaine Raps that put Nickatina on the West Coast circuit. After these releases emerged during what was highly regarded as his golden period,...
