Get Your Tickets Now for Blue October

Tickets are on sale for the April 15 performance of Blue October at the Gillioz Theatre.

Since 1995, Blue October has been a refuge for its members and fans worldwide. Over the course of five albums, platinum sales with singles like “Hate Me” and “Into The Ocean,” and non-stop touring has solidified the band’s presence in the music world.

The jarringly frank “Hate Me,” is one of many reasons that this modern rock outfit Blue October evolved from an intensely beloved cult band to mainstream radio conquerors.

They’ve had high-profile film and TV placements on The Sopranos, Saw III, and NCIS to name a few. Lead singer Justin Furstenfeld was also featured in a unique tour alongside Twilight author Stephanie Meyer in 2008. They’ve played to fans in nearly every corner of the world. It all set the stage for their new album, Any Man in America.

An unexpected and unsettling personal shift sparked the music that would becomeAny Man in America. Justin Furstenfeld found himself mired in the end of a marriage and a tenuous custody battle that consumed him to the breaking point. Instead of falling further, he turned to the studio and began documenting moments in his life in 2008 as the band was working on their last offering, Approaching Normal. The result is thirteen new songs that tell a cathartic tale of heartbreak and healing through unbridled lyrical honesty, anthemic modern rock hooks, and melodic soundscapes.
