Don't worry, there are other concerts available below
THE SOUNDS IN CONCERT:
Swedish new wave revivalists The Sounds blend anthemic guitar hooks and period-perfect synth lines to stunning effect, injecting their modern indie dance rock with just the right amount of '80s nostalgia. Frontwoman Maja Ivarsson may look like she's ready for the runway, but come showtime she means business, leading fans through pogo-inducing renditions of the band's most adrenalin-filled tracks. Hot off the heels of the late-2013 release of Weekend, The Sounds have fans eagerly awaiting their 2014 North American tour dates with Blondfire.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Formed in Sweden in 1998, The Sound made their full-length debut in 2002 with Living in America, becoming an overnight sensation in their home country and landing on the radar of critics in the US and UK. 2006 saw follow-up album Dying to Say This to You as well as main stage performances at the Vans Warped Tour, where the band dazzled fans and critics with their electrifying live sets. Celebrating ten years of recording and touring with the 2013 release of Weekend, the band once again hit the road for a headlining European tour before heading to North America in 2014.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"Awesome, fun, entertaining show! Maja is quite the showwoman and we had a great time! I would definitely go see them again!"
"The show was terrific! They played all their hits and the energy was incredible. It was great to see so many Sounds fans under one roof!"
"Wow, she can really rock some socks! I felt like I was watching Blondie! She brought it back to the old school type of rock, cigarettes and little shorts... They were very entertaining live."
i love her! the sound, song choice, energy... fantastic!
I never saw them in their prime but this comeback!
This was my third time seeing them live. Second time at this venue, The Sounds never fail me! I love them! And I will keep seeing them as many more times they come to town!
It was amazing!!!!!! Not bad for my first concert!
Great performance and the crowd atmosphere was enjoyable as well.
The sounds are such an amazing band to see live. They sound great and Maja always puts on a great show. She loves to interact with the fans. The opening acts, My Jerusalem and Zipper Club were great as well. The venue was The Masquerade (hell). I really was not impressed with that location to tell you the truth. In Atlanta there are 4 different Masquerade locations. Got kind of tricky since I was out of town. The overall neighborhood it was held in wasn't very welcoming either. I hope next time they come through they will play in Charlotte. There's plenty of great venues there. Overall I was super pumped about the show. I got front a front row spot though.
Great show at a small venue. Good energy from the band and crowd.
I go to a lot of concerts, and this is by far one of the best I have ever been too. The Sounds do an amazing job at capturing their audience and making it a fun show. The lead has fantastic stage-presence and is a seasoned performer.
The Sounds were amazing! The show was full of energy and sounded great. This was my first time seeing them live, and is definitely see them again.
Awesome.....they don't hold back. Seen them last time they toured the US and they still got it.
