live music

come see Quiet Riot with Anthony Corder this Friday, October 13 at Cohoes Music Hall

A popular Downtown Troy restaurant is undergoing a transformation and emerging as a live music venue and eatery. After successful live music events, the owners decided to switch things up including a new name.

It was a highly anticipated return of Eric Church to the Capital Region and he did not disappoint! It was "The Outsiders Revival Tour". What a show! We know GNA Nation was out in full force despite the rain and we said howdy to a lot of you. Check out the amazing pictures from last night's show.

Both bands played SPAC three days apart this year.

It had been three years since the Canadian Pacific Holiday Train rolled through the Capital Region. It made three stops; Mechanicville, Saratoga Springs, and Fort Edward. The first was Mechanicville on a rainy Sunday night. This is where I enjoyed the festive holiday train. They are traveling across the country to 106 stops. At each stop, they play live music and collect donations for the local food banks. Country Artist Lindsay Ell was the musical entertainment and she was awesome. The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train also presented the Mechanicville Community Center with a check for $3500 to help restock the food bank. Even though the weather wasn't ideal, a couple of hundred families joined the fun.

With their two shows at Saratoga Performing Arts Center on Friday and Saturday night, Dave Matthews Band will notch a huge milestone in Upstate music history.

Summer at the Plaza is fully underway with a summerlong lineup of food trucks, fun fitness classes, and free lunchtime concerts at Albany's Empire State Plaza.

It seems as if more and more restaurants are experiencing a resurgence after the pandemic. There is one restaurant and bar in Halfmoon that has been around for more than three decades and is entering into a new era.

Nestled on the corner of Lark Street and Hudson Avenue in downtown Albany is one of the city's most beautiful and enduring buildings that has been repurposed as a live concert venue.

I'm pretty sure Dave Grohl is always up for a challenge.  Not that I know the guy.  But really, from touring in a cast on a throne, to a drum off with a 10-year-old, the guy knows no bounds. The drum off with a 10-year-old is the most recent of his escapades, a challenge he accepted after it was thrown out by Nandi Bushell, 10-year-old drummer...

Q1057 is teaming up...with you, the Q1057 Workforce to put together a Dream Concert Weekend to kick-off the first weekend of summer.

No concerts in The Capitol Region for a while? No problem!
