After two summers of delays it is finally happening! The world’s most iconic and celebrated rock legends hit the road together this summer for a coheadlining tour so massive that it could only be held in North America’s biggest stadiums. The Stadium Tour featuring, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, Poison, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, and Classless Act bring their electrifying stage shows while promising to perform their stadium sized anthems.
When they released their debut single “Give It To Me” in the summer of 2021, Classless Act were immediately praised for their ability to sound both fresh and timeless. Loudwire instantly added the song to their “Weekly Wire” Spotify playlist, identifying it as one of the top new releases of the summer. And other iconic outlets, like SPIN Magazine, were early to show support. It was a fitting public introduction to a band who embody what it means to be modern rock stars.
The band, consisting of members Derek Day (Vocals), Dane Pieper (Guitar), Griffin Tucker (Guitar), Franco Gravante (Bass), and Chuck McKissock (Drums), initially formed in 2018 after connecting and bonding virtually by their love and passion of music. Now in Los Angeles, they’ve united on a mission to be the next great generation-defining act, drawing inspiration from classic rock acts of the 70’s and alt-rock groups from the 90’s. Their music echoes the hallmarks of previous generations – anthemic rhythms, shreddy guitars, soaring vocals – but punches its way into the future with clever arrangements, sharp musicianship, and proficient songwriting.
Already making noise in the industry, the band has been in the studio with world-class producers like Bob Rock, Michael Beinhorn and Joe Chiccarrelli, who have helped craft hits for the likes of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Soundgarden, and The White Stripes. The band recently landed a deal with Better Noise Music, Mediabase and Billboard’s #1 rock label for 2020. Their debut album is expected in 2022, when the band will be hitting the road with Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard, and more, on their Summer Stadium Tour.
Most awesome time ever! I heard of Classless Act a week before seeing them. I absolutely love this band! I love their upbeat hard rock music. I love how they smile, dance, and have a great time. I love their looks, style. I love everything about them. The drummer has blue hair like me. I met them after the show and they were all super nice and very respectful. I got a stick from the drummer (my first one ever!) and group photos with the band. I even got a selfie with the drummer. I absolutely love these guys and will definitely see them on tour again.Setlist for the show at the Alamodome
Classless Act put on an energetic, face-melting show! So glad this new band chose to treat us to an intimate show.
