The Higgs Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Named after the elusive Higgs-Boson particle - providing for "mass" of all things in the Universe, and the “unification” of various forms of energy - The Higgs blur musical boundaries and find a unification between many different genres like rock, jazz, prog, reggae and blues. John Lovero (guitar/vocals) founded The Higgs in 2012 out of Southern California. David Barsky (bass/vocals), originally from Philadelphia, joined the band in the summer of 2015. Joining in late 2020 was Cameron LaForest of Phoenix, AZ on drums, who John and David first met when he was playing with Spafford. The Higgs opened for Spafford on their March 2018 tour, including one night in Boise, ID when Cameron joined them onstage for a fiery rendition on The Higgs original, Kung Fu You. Keyboard wizard Elliot Jackson Rauch - also originally from the Philadelphia area, but currently out of Prescott, AZ - is the latest addition. Lots of new, exciting music is coming soon from this latest lineup! The Higgs have performed shows with many admired acts like Twiddle, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, Kung Fu, Oteil Burbridge, John Kadlecik and Melvin Seals. They have taken the stage at lots of great venues all over the country like The Troubadour and Teragram Ballroom in Los Angeles, Fox Theatre in Pomona, CA, Cervante’s in Denver, CO, Crystal Bay Casino Lake Tahoe, The Olympic in Boise, ID, Milkboy in Philadelphia, PA, The 8x10 in Baltimore, MD and Mercury Lounge in NYC. They’ve also played some truly memorable sets at festivals like Hangtown Music Fest, Skull & Roses and BeachLife in California, Frozen Dead Guy Fest in Colorado, and Some Kind Of Jam in Pennsylvania.
