With their most recent album Regenerator inspiring The Obelisk to hail the band as "one of the brightest lights shining in underground rock today" trio of vocalist/guitarist Sean McVay, bassist Dan Reynolds, and drummer Scott Donaldson bring their outfit King Buffalo to Davenport's Raccoon Motel on January 16, their talents also leading Sludgelord to call the group "a powerful concoction of heavy psych, blues, and stoner rock in stunning cohesion."

A consistently popular and lauded presence on the Midwestern touring circuit, beloved folk singer/songwriter Cody Diekhoff – better known by his recording alias Chicago Farmer – headlines a January 18 concert with his band The Field Notes at Davenport's Raccoon Motel, the artist a soulful crooner and guitarist who inspired No Depression to rave, “If the Midwest is looking for a voice, the search is over.”

Having made waves across the Christian-music community with the release of his debut single "Provider" and his first top-20 Billboard-charting single "Every Step of the Way," Red Street Records artist Cade Thompson headlines a January 12 concert at the University of Dubuque's Heritage Center, appearing in a Band Together Charity Concert that will demonstrate how Thompson's sound appeals to believers and mainstream pop audiences alike.

Touring in support of the band's 2023 album Truth Killer, a top-three Billboard smash that Metal Injection called "focused and streamlined with plenty of catchy songs and a few surprises," the Grammy-nominated alternative-metal artists of Sevendust return to East Moline venue The Rust Belt on December 30, performing from a repertoire that includes 14 studio albums, one live album, and 36 singles.
