Lauded by the Los Angeles Times for his “commanding presence” and “a voice that can yearn with crystalline purity or howl with guttural anguish,” Nathaniel Rateliff and his band the Night Sweats bring their national "South of Here Tour" to Moline's Vibrant Arena at the MARK on September 19, this 2024 album of the tour's title leading AllMusic to rave that "Rateliff leads his crew through a panoply of '70s-touched roots rock, delivered with warmth, sincerity, and occasional bursts of grit."

Touring in support of their 2025 album debut Afterglow that Bring the Noise UK called a "seamless blend of clean and screamed vocals, backed by guitar riffs that switch between groovy and crushing," the alternative-metal rockers of Sleep Theory headline the I-ROCK 93.5 Sixth-Anniversary Show at East Moline venue The Rust Belt, the September 19 headliners also praised by Dead Rhetoric for delivering a "fluid powerhouse of metallic urgency, R&B playfulness, danceable electronics, and modern rock energy."

Garnering national attention for their high-energy performances since 2017, the seven world-classic musicians of The Seven Wonders bring their Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks tribute to Davenport's Redstone Room on September 21, authentically recreating such timeless hit singles as "Dreams," "Go Your Own Way," "Rhiannon," "Edge of Seventeen," "Landslide," and "Gypsy."

Held as part of the unique concert series held in Davenport's intimate and cozy Redstone Room, the September 19 Songwriter Sessions event will find Common Chord guests treat to a seated evening of tunes hosted by David G. Smith, with additionally winning performances delivered by Chris Avey, Jenny Shawhan, and Jack Morrow.
