Many great bands are passing through Mezzanine in the next two months, with hip hop, techno, dance, and many other genres being represented in this diverse lineup. Artists like Groove Armada, Timo Maas, David Banner, and Ghostland Observatory will be playing great sets, so try to make it out to as many of these as you can.
Groove Armada - April 4
Since 1995, Groove Armada have been tearing up dance floors around the world. From Grammy nominations to residencies in Ibiza, these guys have pretty much done it all. This is a special DJ set with support dj/producer Damian Lazarus.
Metrowize is giving away tickets to this event, too--be sure to sign up to win your free passes.
Timo Maas - April 11
Since 1982, Maas has been creating and remixing songs for crowds around the world. Most well-known for his remix of Azzido Da Bass's "Doom's Night," he's coming to San Francisco with supporting acts Hercules and Love Affair.
Metrowize has the hookup with tickets to this one, too, so sign up to win.
David Banner - April 12
Banner, who is most well-known for his 2005 hit "Play," has been amping up his career by collaborating with hip hop stars like Chris Brown, Akon, and Snoop Dogg for the past few years. It's rare to get such an intimate concert with one of mainstream hip hop's stars, so don't miss it. And for the icing on the cake: Saigon will also perform.
Ghostland Observatory - April 17
Ghostland Observatory, whose music has been described as "electro-dance soul rock," is returning to Mezzanine for their third concert at the venue in less than a year. Their concerts are incredibly high-octane, with frontman Aaron Behrens supplying the crowd with crazy dancing and wild vocals for each song. It's an instant hit.
Junkie XL - April 19
Since 1988, Junkie XL has been creating and remixing songs for crowds everywhere. With an unrivaled work ethic, which routinely includes fourteen-hour days in his studio, he is one of the hardest-working DJs in the business. Supporting him is Tommie Sunshine.
Metrowize would love to send you to this concert for free--sign up for our Junkie XL ticket giveaway.
Get Physical North American Tour - April 25
Starting in WMC, a couple members of the Get Physical label will be touring the country and land in April 25. M.A.N.D.Y and Heidi are scheduled to play with the addition of Booka Shade for the San Francisco show, making this night all the more exciting.
Simian Mobile Disco - April 26
Simian Mobile Disco has received a lot of traction lately for their remixes of artists such as Muse, Klaxons, The Go! Team, Air and others. They released their first CD last june and an EP is due out soon, which means the music that this British duo will be playing will be new and fresh to even the most dedicated fans.
