Why see Primus?

Primus Hit The Road!

The ever-undefinable Primus have a huge 2024 ahead of them. As well as touring with Coheed & Cambria and A Perfect Circle, the band are also doing a string of headline sets throughout the USA. Composed of bassist/vocalist Les Claypool, guitarist Larry "Ler" LaLonde, and drummer Tim "Herb" Alexander, Primus has been pushing boundaries for nearly 40 years.

The band started as an underground appearance in San Francisco and as their fanbase grew rapidly, so did they. Releasing platinum and gold albums, Primus has toured with some of the biggest names in rock.

Joined by Coheed and Cambria (July - August)

Formed in 1995 in Nyack, New York, the quartet debuted with a bold conceptual vision that fused their pop and post-hardcore-tinged progressive rock with frontman Claudio Sanchez's illustrations and imaginative sci-fi comic book/graphic novel universe called the Armory Wars. Their track 'Welcome Home' launched the band to new heights, where they have remained since.

Also, Freedom Hill…install some wind barriers. We were under the middle of the Pavilion and still got drenched ... Read more
