From country, to pop, to rock music, the 2016 summer is full of different concerts that are in the Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia area. Here are some shows and tours you should see:

Guns N’ Roses:
Known as the old, classic, 80’s rock and roll band, Guns n’ Roses was founded in 1985, about 30 years ago. With well known pop rock songs like “Welcome to the Jungle”, “Sweet Child O’ Mine”, and “Paradise City”, the band become a huge sensation and steadily became more and more famous. They have been on a tour called “Not in This Lifetime…” and will stop by Maryland to perform at FedExField in Landover. All the rock n’ roll fun will be on Sunday, June 26 at 8:00 P.M. and tickets can be found at

Keith Urban
Country music has evolved over the years and one of the greatest country singing/producing artists that has contributed to that has been Keith Urban. Being a judge on American Idol and The Voice, Keith was quickly known to have a humorous and entertaining personality. He will be holding a concert the weekend before the 2016-2017 school year, on Saturday, August 27th, in Bristow, Virginia at 7:30 p.m..

Zedd
There are only a few top EDM(electronic dance music) artists and DJ’s that have ever acquired popularity so great that he/she could gain fans not only from the EDM world, but also respect and love from the pop culture realm as well. Crowned as the greatest music producer, mixing artist, DJ, and Grammy Award winner, Anton Zaslavski, better known by his stage name “Zedd”, has deservedly won these titles. With record hits like Clarity, Find You, and Beautiful Now, Zedd plans to bring the party to Baltimore, Maryland during the Moonrise Festival on August 7 at 7:00 P.M.
