SUMMARY:Of Monsters and Men: The Mouse Parade Tour
DESCRIPTION:From Reykjavík to the global stage\, Of Monsters and Men (OMAM) first captured the world’s attention with their 2011 debut My Head Is an Animal\, transforming from Icelandic indie favorites into a band known and loved worldwide. \nBreakout single “Little Talks” became a generational anthem with over a billion Spotify streams and led to a 2013 Saturday Night Live debut. Their follow-up\, Beneath the Skin (2015)\, debuted Top 3 on the Billboard 200 and included a surprise cameo on HBO’s Game of Thrones. Over the past 15 years\, OMAM have continuously explored\, evolved\, and built a world of music defined by growth and imagination—from the cinematic expansiveness of Beneath the Skin to the dreamlike textures of Fever Dream (2019). \nAlong the way\, OMAM’s cinematic sound has been featured in The Hunger Games\, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty\, and more\, while commanding festival sets at Coachella\, Glastonbury\, and Lollapalooza cemented their reputation as one of the most compelling live acts of their era. Their intimate pandemic-era documentary tíu (2022)\, which premiered at Tribeca and won Best Short at Dumbo\, paired with an EP of unreleased tracks spanning a decade\, further showcased the depth and evolution of their craft. \nAfter pursuing solo and side projects\, the band now reunites with All Is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade\, a tapestry of stories\, moments\, and conversations\, the album explores how love and pain intertwine. Feelings that might seem at odds with each other\, but co-exist simultaneously and need one another. The album marks a new chapter in a career defined by growth\, exploration\, and a commitment to making music that reflects who they are today.

SUMMARY:Tusk: The Classic Tribute to Fleetwood Mac
DESCRIPTION:Playing the hits and deep cuts spanning the careers of Rock N Roll Hall of Fame inductees Fleetwood Mac\, Tusk has been crisscrossing the country since 2008 as The Classic Fleetwood Mac Tribute.

Tusk features note-perfect renditions of both the solo and full band songs\, with each member specializing in one of the core lineup of Fleetwood Mac (Lindsey Buckingham\, Stevie Nicks\, Christine McVie\, John McVie\, and Mick Fleetwood). They possess an electric stage presence that can only come from well over a decade touring together. Truly the best at what they do\, Tusk is unmatched in their tribute to one of the greatest bands of all time.
