Music & Nightlife
Lindsey Stirling @ ONC March 12, 2013
YouTube sensation Lindsey Stirling is perhaps the first – and only – artist in the world to blend classical violin, modern dance and The Legend of Zelda. You can catch Stirling at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 2 at Deluxe.
Having originally impressed the nation as a quarter-finalist on the fifth season of America’s Got Talent, this musical Utah resident proceeded to take YouTube by storm with imaginative music videos, covers, and performances like dubstep violin track, “Crystallize,” “Starships” with Megan Nicole, Zelda Medley, and “Game of Thrones” theme with Peter Hollens.
Stirling reveals that she first started playing violin when she was six years old and practiced for a half hour to an hour a day while she was in school. “And now I feel like I play constantly,” she says. While she was known for her hip-hop tracks on America’s Got Talent, Lindsey’s since expanded to EDM (electronic dance music), which she says feeds her soul.
On September 19th, Lindsey released her self-titled debut album, Lindsey Stirling, coming off the heels of an incredibly successful presence on iTunes. Comprised of 10 original tracks, the album showcases Lindsey’s signature violin-electronic-dubstep style – opening with “Crystallize,” her most popular piece. Lindsey has already sold over 300,000 songs, several of which have hit the iTunes Top 100 as well as the top of the digital electronic charts.
“My musical style is a reflection of my personality,” Lindsey shares, “and through it I hope to share my belief that no one should be afraid to be themselves. All my songs were created to depict specific themes that I pulled from my own life experiences. ‘Spontaneous Me’ is about having the courage to love yourself for who you are.”

Imagine Dragons w/ Atlas Genius & Nico Vega @ ONC February 28, 2013
This year’s breakout rock band Imagine Dragons, who have captivated fans across the globe with their platinum-selling single “It’s Time,” will continue their bid for world domination with their first-ever headlining North American tour with Atlas Genius supporting. The band has announced a U.S. and Canadian Spring 2013 tour that includes a 7:30 p.m. stop February 28 at the Egyptian Room.
Imagine Dragons are touring n support of their full-length debut album Night Visions (KIDinaKORNER/Interscope Records) which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Album chart selling more than 83,000 copies — the best first-week sales for a full-length album by a new rock band since May 2006. Night Visions also climbed to No. 1 on Billboard’s Alternative Albums chart. In its review, Billboard said that Night Visions “delivers its share of high-gloss pleasures, including the beat-heavy ‘Bleeding Out,” the rousing ‘On Top of the World,’ and ‘Tiptoe,’ an appealingly mystical number…”
The success of Night Visions has been fueled not only by the band’s thrilling live show while touring the U.S. (with AWOLNATION) and overseas and high-profile TV appearances (The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel Live! Late Night with Jimmy Fallon), but also by the first single, “It’s Time.” The track is a multi-format hit at radio that has crossed over from Modern Rock to Top 40, Hot AC, and AAA and reached the Top 5 on Billboard’s Alternative and Rock charts after being used in a trailer for the motion picture The Perks of Being A Wallflower. Entertainment Weekly called “It’s Time” “a perfect misfit anthem,” while People Magazine dubbed it “an anthem with a rich melody that’s infectious but gritty.” Raved USA Today: “Imagine Dragons has learned to craft the massive choruses and propulsive rhythms needed to take a rock band into arenas.”
The second single from Night Visions is “Radioactive,” which is currently climbing the Modern Rock chart. The eye- popping video, which was directed by Syndrome (Eminem, Ke$ha, The Black Eyed Peas), premieres today on Vevo, and features actors Lou Diamond Phillips (Southland), Alexandra Daddario (Parenthood), and the puppeteers by the studio Puppet Heap (The Walt Disney Company, The Daily Show). The concept revolves around a mysterious female drifter who is on a quest to save her friends (Imagine Dragons) from the perils of a sinister, underground puppet- fighting ring. The video can be seen here.

Ed Sheeran @ Old National Centre January 26, 2013
Elektra recording artist Ed Sheeran has announced plans for his biggest U.S. headline tour to date. Currently traveling North America on the “VH1 You Oughta Know Tour with Ed Sheeran,” the British singer/songwriter is proving as much a phenomenon here as he is in his native England. Every show on the trek – Sheeran’s first-ever North American headline tour – has sold out, with many upgraded to larger venues in order to accommodate an increasingly fervent fanbase. The “VH1 You Oughta Know Tour with Ed Sheeran” continues through mid-October.
Masterfully blending soulful vocals with organic folk introspection and irresistible hip-hop hooks, Sheeran is a genuine phenomenon. Inspired by such diverse artists as James Morrison, Damien Rice, and Jay-Z, the gifted tunesmith, his major label debut single, “The A Team,” arrived in June 2011 and instantly proved an unqualified sensation, entering among the top 3 on the U.K. Singles Chart. The track spent 11 consecutive weeks in the U.K. Top 10, making history as 2011’s highest charting, biggest selling debut single.
Tickets are on sale now. General admission tickets are $28 in advance, $30 day of show. Purchase your tickets through LiveNation.com, Old National Center Box Office, Ticketmaster outlets, or charge-by-phone at 1-800-754-3000. Applicable fees apply to all ticket sales.

Me In Radio at Birdy’s Bar and Grill on Friday, January 18, 2013
Acoustic Piano sensation Me In Radio will be taking the stage at Birdy’s Bar and Grill with special guest R- Into Astral Orbit and Christa Martini. Doors open at 8pm, show begins 8:30 pm, with $7 pre-sale/$12 night of show.
Me In Radio is avant garde by nature. Rooted within piano, guitar, and melodic undertones of emotion, this one man theatrical act provides a performance that is both promising and meaningful. Recently, Me In Radio released the debut album “Gianni’s Brother”- now available on many major online music distributors (e.g., iTunes, CD Baby, Amazon).
The stage is not new for this one-man-wonder, as he has performed throughout many parts of the Midwest. At age, 20 Versace was the founder and front man of SoupKitchen. A decade later he discovered Me In Radio. “My style is much different than what is gifted to the mainstream public,” says Versace, although influenced by performers such as Ryan Adams, Bjork, Ani Difranco, Fiona Apple and Tori Amos.
Me In Radio generates a plight of raw emotion, leaving crowds wanting more. Often losing himself in the storm of the stage, Versace delivers a performance that is both promising and meaningful. “My favorite part of any performance is scanning the crowd and noticing different reactions…One minute I may notice someone laughing hysterically, while another is caught up emotionally,” he states. That which makes Me In Radio dynamic is what Versace brings to the stage, and what the audience takes away. “I’m excited to play Birdy’s, as I’ve always loved this city and the people,” says Versace.
