The Main Event: The Alive (LA)
Hailing from the California coast, The Alive have been tearing up stages since 2018. Their sound sits at the heavy crossroads of Black Sabbath and Idles – a massive, high-energy wall of sound born between surf and skate sessions.
They’ve dominated main stages at Lollapalooza, Boardmasters, The Great Estate and BottleRock, and famously opened for the Foo Fighters. Beyond the music, they are a dedicated BYOBottle artist, working with Surfers Against Sewage and Save the Waves to protect the oceans they call home.
Featuring: Shane Hawkins on Drums
Providing the heartbeat for this explosive set is the incredible Shane Hawkins. Known for his massive sound and relentless power, Shane’s presence behind the kit makes this a “must-see” performance for any fan of heavy, authentic rock and roll.
