With Fourth of July fireworks, BBQs, and celebrations breaking up our week, nothing screams keep the fun going more than live music! With reggae-rock artists sharing love and good vibes through their music, a live set can be found just about anywhere this weekend!
The tour we have all been waiting for is finally here! The Unity Tour featuring 311 and 
Slightly Stoopid begins on Sunday in South Dakota. With Slightly Stoopid’s new album Top of the World set to hit our ears on August 14th, we hope Slightly is down to share some new tunes at the show! With a dream bill consisting of awesome reggae-rock artists with reputations of putting on amazing shows, fans are in for a great time! SOJA and The Aggrolites are also included on the list but they will be meeting up with the tour in future dates so stay posted!
Dirty Heads and Matisyahu also kick off their tour together this weekend. Hitting up Virginia on Sunday, the duo will be raging all night long! With new music from Matisyahu set to drop July 17th, hopefully tunes from Spark Seeker will be played for eager fans! Dirty Heads also will be jammin’ to their new album Cabin By The Sea as well as their fan favorites. This will be another tour that you just can’t miss!
The 27th Annual Summerjam Festival is rockin’ the reggae vibes in Cologne, Germany. With artists like SOJA, Collie Buddz, Groundation, J BOOG, and Stephen Marley, the international reggae scene will be jammin’ out all weekend long! Although for most of us, Germany is not in the game plan this weekend, it’s awesome to know that despite language barriers, the music we listen to all day long is being enjoyed all around the world!
With new albums and tours beginning this month, there is a lot to look forward to in the coming weeks! So stay updated with the Show Locator to find out about where you need to be each weekend!
