As Valentine's Day approaches, the heartland of rock music beats stronger with the announcement of "The Northern Exposure Tour," a thrilling musical alliance between the spandex-clad icons STEEL PANTHER and the hard rock legends BUCKCHERRY. This tour promises to be a monumental journey through the rock 'n' roll landscape of North America, starting from the sun-kissed stages of California to the icy venues of Canada, and back to the U.S. for a grand finale.
Kicking off on April 11 in Redding, CA, at the Redding Civic Auditorium, this 25-city tour will cross borders and hearts with performances that will echo through the annals of rock history. The tour continues with notable stops in Reno, NV on April 12 for a special STEEL PANTHER only show at the Grand Theatre at Grand Sierra Resort, and a BUCKCHERRY exclusive at El Corazon in Seattle, WA on the same day. The journey north includes stops at Coquitlam, BC on April 15, Penticton, BC on April 16, and a major show at the Midway Music Hall in Edmonton, AB on April 18.
The tour's Canadian leg will feature unforgettable nights in Regina, SK on April 29 at the Conexus Arts Centre and Montreal, QC on May 6 at MTELUS, culminating in a vibrant finale in Quebec City, QC on May 14 at Théâtre Capitole. The tour circles back to the U.S., ending with a bang in North Tonawanda, NY at the Riviera Theatre on May 18.
Opening for these titans of rock is the dynamic rocker Kurt Deimer, ensuring that from the first note to the last, the energy never dips. However, fans should note that Kurt Deimer won't be performing at the show in Waterloo, NY on May 17 at The Vine Showroom at del Lago Casino.
STEEL PANTHER, known for their flamboyant style and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, made their mark with "Feel The Steel" back in 2009. Their track "Death To All But Metal" became an anthem for rock enthusiasts everywhere. Their current lineup, including Michael Starr on vocals and Satchel on lead guitar, continues to tour with the same fervor that has made them one of the most entertaining acts in rock.
BUCKCHERRY, on the other hand, is celebrating two decades of their breakthrough album "15" and is gearing up for the release of their 11th studio album, "Roar Like Thunder," on June 13. With Josh Todd's unmistakable voice leading the charge, fans can expect a setlist that blends the classic hits with fresh anthems.
Both bands are offering VIP packages for fans looking for an even more intimate experience with their rock idols. All ticket and VIP package information can be found on the bands' respective websites.
This tour is more than just concerts; it's a celebration of rock music's enduring spirit, a testament to the power of live music to unite, energize, and inspire. So, dust off your leather jackets, polish your boots, and prepare for "The Northern Exposure Tour" - where rock 'n' roll legends come to life under the northern lights and beyond.
This week, The Big Guy with the Big Show, The Lord, Nelson That Is, goes all in with To Fight For—a no-bullshit band blazing their own path with heavy grooves, spiritual grit, and real-world passion. No flash. No gimmicks. Just music that HITS.
