SUMMARY:Bob Moses and Cannons: Afterglow Tour
DESCRIPTION:Oxis KCRW Festival \nHypnotic nights and electric energy await when the two electro-pop groups come to town. \nWith one foot in the electronic music scene and another in the world of indie rock\, Bob Moses’ music is deeply affecting and perfectly constructed. Billboard said of their 2025 album BLINK\, “All of the smoothness and sophistication we’ve long loved about the duo’s output is present…with Tom Howie’s rich vocals giving emotional depth to the lush productions.” All that and they’re capable of powering mega-parties like EDC and Coachella. Their sets at those fests and on their own global tours have turned heads and moved hips for over a decade. Influential electronic music website Resident Advisor twice called them the best live act of the year\, their track “Love Brand New” made them Alternative radio chart-toppers\, and in 2017 the Grammys made them award winners. At the Bowl\, they’ll make you dance and so much more. \nCannons’ own neon-lit hybrid of electro-pop\, disco\, and synthwave has the sleek\, anything-could-happen vibes of a night out in the big city—complete with a little bit of danger. Their hit “Fire for You” popped up in American Horror Story on its way to going gold and topping the Billboard Alternative chart. Acclaimed by Billboard\, The Hollywood Reporter\, and Consequence\, Cannons have lit up stages at Coachella\, Lollapalooza\, Outside Lands\, and beyond\, and they’ll be returning in 2026 with new music\, marking the start of their next chapter. This is emotionally powerful futuristic music—imagine the end credits for a cyberpunk rom-com and you’re almost there.

SUMMARY:Smokey Robinson & Gladys Knight: Just the Two of Us
DESCRIPTION:With eight Grammy wins and 28 nominations between them\, Gladys Knight and Smokey Robinson are undisputed icons of American soul music. \nNamed among the greatest singers of all time by Rolling Stone magazine\, Gladys Knight burst onto the music scene with Motown group The Pips in 1961 and spent the next six decades delivering number-one hits in pop\, gospel and R&B. Although best known for her timeless singles “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” and “Midnight Train to Georgia”\, Knight’s ceaseless energy has led her to record more than 38 albums as well as acting in film and television. In 2024\, Knight added a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award to her seven-strong collection. \nSmokey Robinson has penned and performed some of the 20th century’s most indelible hits\, including “You’ve Really Got a Hold on Me” and “I Second That Emotion.” As frontman of the Miracles and a primary songwriter for the Motown label\, he also wrote and produced countless chart-toppers for other greats of the era\, such as the Temptations and Marvin Gaye. Robinson’s mastery of performance and songcraft has shaped a career spanning more than half a century\, and this Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee shows no sign of slowing down.
