“Soul Survivors” featuring
Vivian Green and Eric Roberson

Just Announced + On Sale Thursday, March 03 @10am!

Vivian Green writes songs that explore the ins and outs of love from a variety of perspectives, from the youthful romanticism of “Somewhere” to the playful insight of “”Better Man” to the hard-won intensity of “When We’re Apart” and “Beautiful.” If there is a face to the independent soul music movement, it is probably 2011 Grammy Nominee Eric Roberson. The respect he receives from other artists has been driven by his uncompromising success as well as from the unselfishness he has shown in support of other up-and-coming singers and musicians.

Coheed and Cambria
Just Announced + On Sale Thursday, March 03 @10am!

It would be hard to find a band with grander artistic scope than Coheed and Cambria. Over the course of six years and four groundbreaking albums, the New York foursome (Claudio Sanchez, vocals, guitar; Travis Stever, guitar; Michael Todd, bass; Chris Pennie, drums) has diligently developed a unique sound combining forward-thinking classic rock with strong pop sensibilities and intricate musicianship. Simultaneously, through his lyrics and comics, Sanchez has created a celebrated epic alternate universe called The Amory Wars, in which lies an ongoing conceptual tale that gains depth and complexity with each and every record.

Family Force 5 presents: Tourantula!!
w. Stereo Skyline, Swimming With Doplhins, Since Forever
Just Announced + On Sale Friday, March 04 @10am!

There’s a delicate balance between the intertwining worlds of artistry, entertainment and humor, but for dance-derived alternative rockers Family Force 5, it’s an ecstatic equilibrium that remarkably illustrates all three elements. With tongue firmly planted in cheek, the Atlanta-based five-some are just as likely to get the party started as they are to escort audiences into an alternate reality.

I AM DONALD TOUR featuring
Donald Glover & Childish Gambino

Just Announced + On Sale Friday, March 04 @10am!

Donald Glover is one of the stars of the hit comedy series Community. He says of his headlining tour, “The IAMDONALD TOUR is an interactive experience that uses live music, comedy, and video to convey the personal experience of being me, Donald Glover. Everyone who comes to the show will leave the show my best friend. IAMDONALD is about not letting people define you. A lot of my fans tweet or email me saying how they like that I do a lot of things and aren’t held back by people saying ‘You’re a writer. Why are you acting?’ or ‘You can’t rap about the show Rugrats.’ I say $&#! that.’ That’s pretty much the show.”

Comedy: Like to hear it? Hear it goes…

So basically, David Alan Grier is coming. Coming to Rams Head Live to perform a full length stand-up comedy routine and the first thing that comes to mind is that I can sing along with the theme song to In Living Color to this day. “Let’s take a trip and zip on a dream, ride with a guide on a funky scene…”…….”no need to hold your remote control, chill. This show’s got soul….”

And even though I wasn’t supposed to be watching (or tuning into most shows on the new-at-the-time FOX network) because my mommy said the content was “too mature”, my sister and I would sneak into the guest room to watch Calhoun Tubbs perform an endless playlist of limited creativity:

David Alan Grier has since been a Comedy Central favorite. He appeared regularly on Crank Yankers and was honored to host the stand-up variety, Premium Blend. Most recentlly, Grier is busy tellin’ it like it is as the lead anchor on Comedy Central’s Chocolate News. The new show and new millenium has brought a fresh entourage of characters. One of our personal favorites, Phat Man.

What will Grier bust out live? The man does so many impressions, I wonder which we’ll be blessed with: Al Sharpton, Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell, Ike Turner? With the recent Star Trek remake, I’m hoping for a little Leonard Nimoy. But I’ll settle for some Marion Barry or Maya Angelou. I mean, who does impression of Maya Angelou… seriously.

Be there: Friday, July 10th at Rams Head Live.
