SUMMARY:Jason Mraz
DESCRIPTION:Still Yours Tour with Special Guest Gregory Page \nWith touches of folk\, jam band rhythms\, hip-hop\, and soft rock\, Jason Mraz has built a sound that feels as relaxed and sun-soaked as the California coast he calls home. His music blends playful humor with genuine emotion\, creating a style that’s both easygoing and deeply personal. \nMraz first broke through with “The Remedy (I Won’t Worry)” from his 2002 debut album\, *Waiting for My Rocket to Come*. By the time he reached global success with “I’m Yours” in 2008—a Grammy-nominated hit for Song of the Year—he had already established himself as one of the defining singer-songwriters of his generation. That same era brought major success with *We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things.*\, which climbed to number three on the Billboard 200. \nIn 2010\, Mraz took home two Grammy Awards: Best Male Pop Vocal Performance for “Make It Mine” and Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals for “Lucky\,” his duet with Colbie Caillat. He followed that momentum with another major hit\, “I Won’t Give Up\,” from his 2012 album *Love Is a Four Letter Word*\, which reached number two in the U.S. and leaned into a warm\, soul-inspired sound. \nWhile “I Won’t Give Up” marked his final Top 40 single\, Mraz continued to build a strong presence with albums that balanced upbeat energy and romantic themes. Releases like 2014’s *Yes!* and 2018’s *Know.* both charted highly\, showing his staying power even as the musical landscape shifted. During this time\, he also expanded into theater\, appearing on Broadway in Sara Bareilles’ musical *Waitress*. \nIn the 2020s\, Mraz has continued to evolve while staying true to his core message of optimism and connection. His 2023 album\, *Mystical Magical Rhythmical Radical Ride*\, leans into a disco-inspired sound\, proving that his music can still surprise while keeping that signature sense of joy intact.

SUMMARY:Fuel
DESCRIPTION:at The Wolf Den \nIf you came up on late ’90s and early 2000s rock\, this one hits right in that space. Fuel brings their post-grunge\, radio-dominating sound to Mohegan Sun Arena on June 5 at 8 PM\, pulling from a catalog that defined that era of alt-rock. Formed in the early ’90s\, the band broke through with their debut Sunburn and followed it with multi-platinum success\, becoming one of the most recognizable rock acts of the time. \nThe setlist is built around songs that still land hard live. Tracks like “Shimmer\,” “Hemorrhage (In My Hands)\,” and “Bad Day” weren’t just hits—they became staples of rock radio\, with “Hemorrhage” later ranked among the top alternative songs of its era. Their sound blends heavy guitar work with melodic\, emotional hooks\, giving their music that mix of intensity and atmosphere that carries well in a live setting. \nLive\, Fuel leans into that balance—loud\, tight\, and just polished enough to keep the songs hitting the way people remember them. It’s not a nostalgia act phoning it in… it’s a band still built around songs that connect\, especially in a room full of people who grew up with them. If you’re looking for a night of straight-up rock with real staying power\, this one delivers exactly what you want without overcomplicating it.

SUMMARY:Bluebird at the UNITED
DESCRIPTION:Bluebird at the UNITED brings the spirit of Nashville’s legendary songwriter circles to United Theatre on Saturday\, June 6 at 8 p.m. Created in partnership with the famed Bluebird Cafe\, the concert series focuses less on flashy production and more on the heart of songwriting itself\, placing artists onstage to perform stripped-down music while sharing the personal stories that inspired the songs. Even before the featured performers are announced\, the format alone carries serious appeal for fans of country\, Americana\, and intimate live music experiences. \nBluebird at the UNITED is part of the theater’s larger “Nashville North” initiative\, an ongoing cultural exchange designed to bring elements of Nashville’s music scene to Rhode Island through performances\, collaborations\, and educational programming. The series reflects the kind of songwriter-round tradition that made the Bluebird Cafe famous\, where lyrics\, storytelling\, and emotional honesty take center stage. Rather than a traditional concert built around spectacle\, these performances tend to feel conversational and personal\, giving audiences a closer connection to the artists and the creative process behind the music. \nThe UNITED Theatre’s intimate atmosphere should make the evening especially memorable. The historic downtown Westerly venue has become known for carefully curated performances that feel immersive and community-driven\, and Bluebird fits naturally into that approach. Expect a crowd filled with serious music lovers\, attentive listening\, and the kind of quiet moments where a single lyric can completely hold a room. For anyone drawn to authentic songwriting and acoustic performance\, this promises to be one of the more unique live music experiences of the early summer season. \n

SUMMARY:Devo
DESCRIPTION:Mutate Don’t Stagnate \nIn 1973\, rising from the fallout of late ’60s political unrest and the emerging post-punk scene\, DEVO took shape. The band came together in Akron\, Ohio\, built around two sets of brothers—Mark and Bob Mothersbaugh\, and Gerald and Bob Casale—alongside drummer Alan Myers. \nFrom the beginning\, DEVO wasn’t just a band. It was an idea. Their concept of “Devolution”—the belief that society was regressing rather than progressing—paired with a sharp\, unconventional mix of electronic sound and punk energy\, set them apart immediately. That vision would go on to influence music and culture well into the ’80s and beyond. \nThe foundation started at Kent State University\, where Mark Mothersbaugh and Gerald Casale met and began trading ideas about art\, music\, and the world around them. The Vietnam War\, campus protests\, and the Kent State shootings in May 1970 left a lasting mark on both of them. What followed was a series of experimental films and songs that slowly evolved into a completely original performance style—part art project\, part band\, fully its own thing. \nThat approach caught attention fast. As New Wave began to take hold\, DEVO stood out\, pulling in a devoted following that included figures like David Bowie\, Iggy Pop\, and Neil Young. \nIn 1978\, everything shifted. After a performance at Max’s Kansas City where David Bowie called them “the band of the future\,” DEVO found themselves in Germany\, working with Brian Eno on their debut album\, *Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are DEVO!*. The record drew critical attention and helped grow their audience\, but it was their third album\, *Freedom of Choice*\, that broke them wide open. Produced by Bob Margouleff and featuring the double-platinum hit “Whip It\,” the album pushed DEVO into global recognition. \nThey weren’t just part of the movement. They were ahead of it.
