Metalcore band Zao has been active since the 90s. The band started in 1993, but the core of the band that continues to this day stems from 1998. The band has both a Christian and secular following, but has distanced its music from the former. It’s been a minute since they released a studio album, but they did release Live from the Church in 2024. They will be at Reverb Lounge on August 11th. Tickets go on sale this Friday HERE.
Popular Ohio DJ Crankdat will be at The Royal Grove on August 22nd. The DJ is known for his original music, but more so for remixing artists such as Fetty Wap, Black Eyed Peas, Post Malone, Lil Yachty, Travis Scott, The Chainsmokers, and more. Tickets for the show are on sale HERE
Pop duo Jack & Jack originally come from Omaha. When they were teens, the duo hit it big on the Vine app. They went on to chart singles all over the world, then pursued solo careers, and are now back together. I believe their last show was at Waiting Room not too long ago, and it sold out. They released a new album last year and just put out a single called “baby blue” a couple of weeks ago.
There is another artist named Jack from Omaha who goes by just Jack, but this is not him. I would have had him open just to really mess with people. Tickets for this show are on sale HERE on Friday.
John Garcia was the lead vocalist of stoner rock pioneers Kyuss. He is coming to Slowdown on July 11th to perform the songs of Kyuss. Tickets are on sale HERE
