Best Indie & Rock from September 8 - November 8

in Saskatoon

Arkells at SaskTel Centre

Arkells

Canada's very own sons are hitting the road once again. Expect a show chockablock with their trademark 'rock and soul' sound, whilst introducing a melting pot of influences that underpin a shifting Coldplay-esque pop aesthetic that'll leave you breathless! The upcoming shows are sure to be a dream come true for any Arkells fans!

Dropkick Murphys at SaskTel 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. Their music has been used as the Boston Red Sox's World Series-winning song as well as in many films such as Fever Pitch. Don't miss them live this year when they hit the road once more!

Explosions In The Sky at Coors Event Centre

Explosions In The Sky

Explosions In The Sky are heading on their first tour since 2020! With a reputation for a scathingly intense live performance and a quickly sold-out CD-R demo 'How Strange, Innocence', which was later reissued in 2005, Explosions in the Sky was touted early on in their career as the next phenomenon in moody and dynamic instrumental indie rock a la Mogwai and Godspeed You Black Emperor!

Needtobreathe at Coors Event Centre

Needtobreathe

Grammy-nominated Needtobreathe are hitting the road again this year doing what they do best and bringing their music to their fans on their latest 'Caves' tour. Don't miss your chance to see them live as they cross the country with 27 dates from April through to July before heading to Europe later in the year!

Sebastian Bach at Coors Event Centre

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!

The Dead South at TCU Place

The Dead South

Harkening back to an era where country was more about punch-in-the-guts emotions and authentic performances than auto-tune and fist-pumping party anthems, The Dead South are often described as outlaws for their fearless return to a simpler time, blending bluegrass and folk with the energy of a DIY punk band. As compelling on stage as they are on record, the rock-stomping Canadian quintet hits the road once again!

Extreme at TCU Place

Extreme

Glam rock stalwarts Extreme are back on the road this year, after releasing their long anticipated sixth studio album, Six, in 2023 - their first record in 15 years! With an almost four-decade long career, the band have a lasting legacy of helping to keep the glam rock and hair metal genres in the mainstream well into the 90s when Britpop and Grunge threatened to bring the curtain down. Their platinum selling 1990 record Pornograffiti was named as the 13th greatest hair metal album of all time by Rolling Stone.
