Martin Lawrence at Credit Union 1 Arena

Martin Lawrence

Martin Lawrence, the original Bad Boy of comedy, is gearing up for the release of his long-awaited sequel 'Bad Boys: Ride or Die' with Will Smith, set for general release in summer 2024. But the actor/comedian/singer isn't resting on his laurels until that happy day, as he's hitting the road this year for the 'Y'all Know What It Is! Tour,' his first tour in 8 years. Outspoken on subjects such as relationships, family, and vocal opposition to police brutality, Lawrence's raw style shows no sign of mellowing as we head into the new year. Be warned - this comic takes no prisoners at his shows!

Don Toliver at Credit Union 1 Arena

Don Toliver

Rapper Don Toliver is hitting the road this summer with his 'Psycho' tour and you're invited to join the party! With support from the incredible Teezo Touchdown, the brand new 25-dated tour kicks off in Portland, making stops at New York, Chicago, Boston and many more before wrapping up in Denver. Grab your tickets while you can!

Rainbow Kitten Surprise at Credit Union 1 Arena

Rainbow Kitten Surprise

Rainbow Kitten Surprise may sound like the title of a Japanese game show, but the band's mature, genre-defying sound is as surprising as their choice of moniker. Drawing upon facets of grunge, alt-rock, blues and unapologetic pop, the North Carolina natives craft upbeat anthems that underlie lead singer Sam Melo's poetic, howling lyrics and vocals.

Keshi at Credit Union 1 Arena

Keshi

Lo-fi R&B newcomer Keshi embarks on a tour of North America, bringing his sensual, atmospheric brand of chilled out pop to stages nationwide. Releasing his debut album in Spring 2022 and, with his combined Spotify streams already at over a billion, this is a chance to catch the rising star before he goes stratospheric!

Kirk Franklin at Credit Union 1 Arena

Kirk Franklin

Kirk Franklin is at the forefront of the modern Gospel music scene. It seems he was always destined to lead others in song, as the seven-time Grammy Winning musician, choir leader and author displayed signs of musical virtuosity at a young age. By 12 he was leading his local Church and went on to found a 17 person strong choir called The Family, with which he released a certified platinum debut and the award winning 'Watcha Lookin' 4'.
