Early-June Music: Silvio’s back with soul

Little Steven, who is returning to Denmark with his own band after a gap of 25 years, is one of those rare breeds: a musician who has gone on to enjoy just as much success as an actor.

Most of us better know Steven Van Zandt, the former guitarist in Bruce Springsteen’s E Street band, as Silvio in The Sopranos, a role he kind of reprised for Lillyhamer.

Little Steven has handpicked the 15 musicians that will go on stage with him, so it will most definitely be a memorable night.

According to various rumours, this concert will provide a taster of Little Steven’s new album, which is due out in September.

If you’re looking for a night of rock and soul, you won’t want to miss this!

Walk this way as June is turning out to be quite a treat for rock fans with another beloved band visiting us. The ‘Aero-Vederci Baby’ tour has been officially labelled by the band as their farewell tour in Europe. As hard as it is to miss Stephen Tyler’s lips, you don’t want to miss this.

Little Mix

For those reminiscing about the days of the Spice Girls, you can get a similar dose thanks to this British girl band at this event. Making Simon Cowell proud, the winners of the 2011 The X Factor and recent Brit winners sure know how to put a show on.

Sergeant Pepper 50th Anniversary Concert

Can it really be 50 years since the release of Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, the eighth studio album of the Beatles. To mark the occasion, musicians are congregating at Pumpehuset to cover the hell out of the album. It could be ‘A Day in the Life’ you’ll never forget.
