With that said, here is a preview of some of the next big names coming to Eastern Washington this summer: Word is spreading – Eastern Washington venues are the place to be. And often enough, they enjoy it so much that Spokane reappears on their list for the next tour. It’s becoming clear that when artists perform in the greater Spokane area, whether at Northern Quest Casino, the Knitting Factory, The Martin Woldson Theater at the Fox or elsewhere, musicians are taking advantage of each location’s distinct character. Last summer, popular folk band The Lumineers played at the Gorge Amphitheatre – and the concert was met with so much success that they’re coming back again this September. The Pavilion recently drew in names like Lord Huron, whose song “The Night We Met” has over 1.2 billion streams on Spotify alone, and four-time Grammy nominee Phoebe Bridgers played the venue last summer. But recently, this region of the Pacific Northwest has made a name for itself as a destination for a variety of musical genres – big names in indie, pop, and hip-hop alike are all starting to take interest in Eastern Washington’s unique concert venues. Spokane has always had its fair share of high-profile country music performances.

Spokane has always struggled to compete with Seattle’s music scene.įans often find themselves making the five-hour trek across the Cascades for a chance to see their favorite artists live – and instead of a one-night event, big concerts like Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour or Harry Style’s TPWK Tour become weekend experiences for everyone who must travel from the east side of the state.
