Canadian rockers Theory music is down-and-dirty rock and roll done right, mixed with some swampy blues riffs and a healthy serving of good boy country, and they have concerts to match. With booming bass drums, high-impact guitars and stadiums and arenas packed with Theory fans who are there to party, this is one of the best rock tickets in town.

Theory consistently deliver undeniable anthems rooted in scorching songcraft, experimental vision, rock ‘n’ roll attitude, and clever pop ambition. After nearly two decades, the musicians landed their biggest career hit in the form of “Rx (Medicate)” from 2017’s Wake Up Call. Not only did it receive a platinum plaque, generate 100 million, plus streams, and become their third number one on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, but it also received a nomination in the category of “Rock Song of the Year” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.

To date, their discography encompassed the double-platinum single “Bad Girlfriend,” platinum single “Not Meant To Be,” platinum album Scars & Souvenirs, and gold singles “Angel” and “Hate My Life.” Plus, they notched two Top 10 debuts on the Billboard Top 200, namely "Truth Is..." and "Savage", as well as eight top tens on Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks Chart. In addition to selling out shows worldwide, they’ve toured with everyone from Alter Bridge and Bush to Stone Sour and Big Wreck and more.
Theory was excellent! The band was great, the song mix was great, the new and the old. Stage presence was good, and of course Tyler stole the show with his amazing personality, schmoozing the crowd! Was close enough to catch a guitar pic, made my night!

Amazing show. All music was amazing and managed to get a guitar pick from Tyler. I love these guys and know just about every word to every song! I want to see them every time they come!

Theory was awesome! They definitely know how to put on a show!

Theory was a great band to see, the way he interacted with the crowd was one that I have not seen before. Will definitely see again if the opportunity is given.

Show was awesome! I was still feeling the awesomeness the next morning. Highly recommend going to see Theory.
