Info
Alabama Shakes land at Freedom Mobile Arch in Vancouver, Canada, on 27 July 2026. Formed in Athens, Alabama, the quartet of Brittany Howard (voice, guitar), Zac Cockrell (bass), Steve Johnson (drums) and Heath Fogg (guitar) distills a rock rooted in soul and blues. From a self-released EP in 2011 to Boys & Girls in 2012, they forged concise songs built on Howard’s expressive tone, warm guitars and a stripped rhythm section. Sound & Color (2015) widened the palette with atmospheric turns and subtle psychedelic shades, without losing a focus on direct, melodic writing. On stage, the band moves between raw pulse and spacious crescendos, leaving room for dynamics and tight interplay.
Also on the bill, Billy Allen + The Pollies carry the North Alabama lineage. Led by singer Billy Allen alongside Jay Burgess, Spencer Duncan, Jon Davis and Clint Chandler, they blend classic rock foundations with soul keys, R&B inflections and a rougher garage edge. The project grew from sessions at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals and writing done during the pandemic, before a largely live recording in 2021 with producer Ben Tanner. Guitars, keys and tense vocals push the songs forward with a collective, straight-to-the-room feel.
