If you want catch some hard rocking by local acts on the rise, stop by the Grog Shop for the Christmas Chaos tour, headlined by young Akron-based punk rockers Detention. The group, fronted by aggressive neon-haired vocalist Elliot Carter, with guitarist Evans Cox, bassist Fritz Dannemiller and drummer Luke Konopka, are celebrating the recent release of two new singles with this tour, which is also hitting Columbus, Youngstown, Akron and Pittsburgh.
They’re joined by the more seasoned rockers Lilieae, formed in 2017 by its core duo of vocalist Lydia Puccini and bassist/vocalist Kayleigh Hyland. It released its debut EP Level in 2019, and a second called Run! Run! Run! in 2021, showcasing a scruffy but catchy pop/rock sound influenced by bands such as the Pixies, No Doubt, Nirvana and Weezer.
Hard rock quintet Quick Mystery rounds out the bill. Get tickets here.
