About Rival Sons
Since their emergence in 2009, Rival Sons have quietly reignited and recharged rock ‘n’ roll with towering vocals, uncompromising riffs, and thunderous grooves. Following the independent release of their full-length debut Before The Fire, they were handpicked to perform alongside everyone from AC/DC to Black Sabbath. Working with longtime producer Dave Cobb, the band delivered a series of critically acclaimed albums—Pressure & Time [2011], Head Down [2012], Great Western Valkyrie [2014], and Hollow Bones [2016]—as they headlined sold out shows on multiple continents. 2019’s FERAL ROOTS broke new ground for the band. “Do Your Worst” shot to #1 on Rock Radio as their first chart-topper at the format. It also scored 40 million-plus streams and counting. They delivered an electrifying performance on The Late Late Show with James Corden and earned acclaim from Billboard, Rolling Stone, and many more. FERAL ROOTS also gathered a 2020 GRAMMY Award nomination for “Best Rock Album,” while the single “Too Bad” notched a nomination for “Best Rock Performance.” 2021 saw Rival Sons present their own label Sacred Tongue Recordings distributed by Thirty Tigers. Through and through, they embody everything a modern rock band should be and so much more. Featuring vocalist Jay Buchanan, guitarist Scott Holiday, bassist Dave Beste and drummer Mike Miley, Rival Sons play an incendiary blend of rock and roll and blues that brings a modern edge to a classic recipe for rock.

Great show. Wish they had not been gone on tour for so long. We have wanted to see them perform for a loooonnngggg time.....This was our fourth Rival Sons Concert. The venue was good besides the 6’6” guy that decided to take three steps away from his group and stand directly in front of me holding his cell phone in front of my face the entire time with no regard for anyone even after asking him to move a bit since he boxed me out and stood shoulder to shoulder with my wife instead of his wife or girlfriend ..... lol will be trying to get tickets to the next show in San Diego. Hope my tall buddy gets lost on the way .....

Since the last time Rival Sons were at the Ogden and heroically gave a great show despite many members (including Jay) being sick, we were super excited to see them live while *not* sick. They did so much more than just not disappoint; they were phenomenal! Very long set, which included the entire Pressure & Time album (or very nearly - there were so many songs I lost track), plus so many greats from way back when to recent stuff like Feral Roots. If it’s your favorite RS song, odds are they played it and rocked the shit out of it. All while dressed up for Halloween! Couldn’t. Be. Better. #happyplace #rockuallnight #rs=killershowalways

This was my first time seeing Rival Sons live, and they did not disappoint! They have an awesome Zeppelin-like edge. They came out rockin' and didn't stop! I love The Tabernacle because it's a historic old building, but it's not the best venue. Acoustics were good, but the seats in the balcony are not staggered, so it was hard to see around the person in front of me. It's also not ADA-friendly. LOTS of steps, and their pathetic excuse for an elevator does not eliminate all steps. Staff was very nice and helpful, and they had enough bathrooms for the size of the venue.

Interesting trio of bands: Starcrawler, Black Angels & Rival Sons. It was an excellent experience from the venue, it's staff, and obviously all 3 bands. It was our 1st time @ The Fillmore Mpls and if any bands we follow play there - we will be there. I would have went to the concert even if Rival Sons or Black Angels were not on the bill. It was a great double header for us with Starcrawlers great set. I had heard of them but not heard them. I will be buying their 3 lps.

I am a big fan, so you’ll have to factor that in, but I loved the show. They did a great job of balancing the new album with some classics over the 14 song set. I wish they had played longer, but every song they played was great. I’d not been to The Factory, and it’s a great venue for a show. The sound was great and the crowd was the perfect size. Great energy without being jammed together so much that you can’t enjoy the music. I would definitely see another show there.

The Rival Sons put on a spectacular show every time I see them. Last night, at the Masquerade, was no exception! The intimacy of the venue accentuated the the more nuanced parts of their music. They covered a full dynamic range, from delicate and quiet to loud and powerful. Few bands today are able to display that level of virtuosity. I have been a concert goer since 1972. I have seen almost everyone. This was a top 5 concert for me. If you get an opportunity to see them live, take it!

If that's the kind of crowd/people that the Rival Sons draw to a show, then that's the last time I will ever go see them. The band was very good. But the opening band was not good, and the people attending were drunk jackasses! We drove from Indy for the show, and we were very disappointed!! We couldn't even enjoy the show, because everyone around us was talking, and stumbling into us all night! Most of them were lit before the first band even started.

Absolutely incredible! This was our 5th time seeing RS. I'm so happy they were here local. It is difficult opening for or closing (in this case) because Rival sounds better than just about anybody live (props to their sound engineer). Rapture was incredible. The mix was majestic. The worst part was only having them for 45 minutes. We left early and were blessed to meet Miley. Just an epic experience. Go see Rival Sons live! Rock isn't dead; you're just listening to the wrong things!

I’ve realized that most of the livestream shows I’ve been making sure to catch are many different people doing one song. Once I realized that, it’s fine. And this one had a flyer so you could see there would be many performers. I was more than happy to hear jays voice for a couple mins. Kept the rest of the show on mute until I saw him. I may donate still though. I’m donating to a lot of things lately so I dunno.

Love, love, love Rival Sons!! They are wonderful live! Love the extended versions of songs-such incredible talent! Could only give four stars because it’s a shame for me that they plan at Delmar Hall. Extremely packed, impossible to watch/see, pretty uncomfortable venue for a show that big. Ticket prices were fair though! Thanks for that! Can’t wait to see them again, this was my fourth time. Would love to see them play a different venue. One with better views and more seating. ❤️
