SUMMARY:Herr Metal
DESCRIPTION:All the hits … all the hair! Herr Metal\, the ultimate ’80s rock sensation direct from Germany\, is ready to take you on a headbanging\, fist-pumping\, air guitar-shredding journey through the best decade in rock history. If you’ve ever dreamed of stepping back into the golden era of arena rock—when Guns n’ Roses\, Bon Jovi\, Def Leppard\, and Mötley Crüe ruled the airwaves—now’s your chance. Herr Metal will have you rocking like it’s 1987 all over again! They blew the roof off the Pavilion 2024\, with over 3\,000 in attendance\, then did it again in 2025! So of course they are back! By popular demand! Gute Zeit! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Accommodations Sponsor

SUMMARY:Pat McGee Band
DESCRIPTION:Missed their killer show with us last year? Good news is we have them back (following their appearance last fall at Wolf Trap). Sales of over 100\,000 copies of their first three albums caused Warner Bros. Records to sign the group to an exclusive contract at the end of the ‘90s. The Pat McGee Band is known for a dedication to the road (at one point in a ten-year touring stint\, they played a remarkable 98 concerts in a period of 103 days). They shared stages with the Who\, the Allman Brothers\, James Taylor\, and many more\, and also achieved the ultimate honors — performing for President Bill Clinton\, touring with the USO\, and sharing their songs onboard the USS Eisenhower with 5\,000 servicemen and servicewomen serving a tour of duty in the Arabian Sea.   \n\n\n\nMcGee and his mates capture their own sense of optimism and exuberance\, borne of the classic influences of such tightly knit ensembles as the Grateful Dead and the Allman Brothers\, as well as the Laurel Canyon glow evoked by preeminent ‘70s singer/songwriters such as James Taylor and Jackson Browne. They remind listeners why music is both important and inspiring\, particularly to those experiencing both the discoveries and disappointments that accompany one’s coming of age.   \n\n\n\nMcGee remains as active as ever. His last solo album\, an eponymous effort\, found him working with such luminaries as Russ Kunkel\, Leland Sklar\, Waddy Wachtel\, and Danny Kortchmar (better known as The Section)\, David Crosby\, colleague Jeff Pevar\, Paul Barrere of Little Feat\, John Popper of Blues Traveler\, Pat Monahan of Train\, and Punch Brother Gabe Witcher. Pretty rare company. The gatherings McGee continues to preside over — “Down the Hatch” and “Ocean State of Mind” — continue to attract the faithful on an annual basis while reconnecting friends and fans through that common bond that McGee and company have nurtured so successfully over the past 25 years. You won’t see this iconic favorite anywhere else anytime soon for free. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Accommodations Sponsor

SUMMARY:Gracie Jay
DESCRIPTION:Presented in partnership with\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHost Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMulti-talented arranger and vocalist Gracie Jay has performed and recorded with artists including Cyrille Aimee\, Nicholas Payton\, Camille Thurman\, Jamison Ross\, and more. Her written works have been performed by groups including the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra\, Next Generation Big Band\, and the New Guard Big Band.

SUMMARY:RDGLDGRN
DESCRIPTION:A Reston Homecoming! The bandmembers met while at South Lakes High school\, and have gone on to tour throughout North America\, Europe\, and the Caribbean\, performed at major venues (including Red Rocks\, and the ARISE Music and California Roots Festivals)\, and made numerous radio and television appearances (including the Jimmy Kimmel Show). They have had epic collaborations with Dave Grohl (who played throughout their first album) and Pharrell\, have opened for the Foo Fighters\, and played live shows alongside 311\, Dirty Heads\, the Marley Brothers\, and others. \n\n\n\nRDGLDGRN have always been fearless\, with their sound described as a blending of rock\, hip-hop\, funk\, and go-go. Their 2025 The Red Album would expand into reggae\, giving it the respect it deserves\, not as background “vacation music” but as a world-changing sound. The album included collaborations with Nick Hexum of 311\, Surfer Girl\, Jarv\, Kash’d Out\, Ballyhoo!\, and The Ries Brothers. 2026’s The Gold Album\, which had 1\,000\,000 streams on Spotify within 7 days of its release\, is a love letter to reggae\, and is the golden chapter in RDGLDGRN’s story — a story that now brings them back to Reston for what will be an unforgettable evening. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Accommodations Sponsor

SUMMARY:Hell's Belles
DESCRIPTION:Like us\, HELL’S BELLES are first and foremost dedicated AC/DC fanatics. We’re all part of a huge community of devotees to one of the greatest rock-n-roll bands in the world. Delivering with mechanical precision and passionate fury\, and endorsed by Angus Young himself (Blender Magazine 2003)\, HELL’S BELLES are the closest one can get without actually moving to Australia and joining AC/DC’s road crew. \n\n\n\nRepresenting for a whole new generation of women that won’t be intimidated\, HELL’S BELLES actively encourage its legions of fans to stand up and be counted\, and they collaborate with women musicians and causes as a part of the mission towards rock and roll inclusion. This all-female band will not only help balance the gender scales but will have you screaming and jumping out of your seat\, just like any full-throated AC/DC homage should. \n\n\n\nThe thousands of shows HELL’S BELLES have played around the world\, including Jordan\, Singapore\, Japan\, Canada\, and the good ol’ USA (including Alaska)\, have become legendary nights of epic proportions. Consistently sold-out (of course\, we have them for free!)\, there’s not a HELL’S BELLES audience that hasn’t been blown away by the raw power\, attention to AC/DC details\, and undeniable appeal that these BELLES deliver with undying devotion. The marathon set lists change to include a fresh variety of classics (and what a list — from the Angus-stripping Bad Boy Boogie to Dirty Deeds\, TNT\, Highway to Hell\, Thunderstruck\, and Back in Black)\, it’s an all-out rock-n-roll assault that leaves you both satisfied and begging for more. And the more you’ll get as HELL’S BELLES keep conquering new cities — including this\, their first appearance at our Pavilion concerts!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Accommodations Sponsor

SUMMARY:Ace Monroe
DESCRIPTION:Having crushed it as the opener for Smash Mouth at our inaugural Rocktoberfest last fall\, there was no doubt we would ask these rockers back for their own show! Ace Monroe is a Nashville-based up-and-comer with an old rock & roll soul. Their latest album\, Wild Card\, and prior hits like Don’t Mind and Summer Heat\, harken back to 70s and 80s unapologetic rock & roll\, influenced by some of the greatest of all time. And maybe we can entice them to supplement their sensational and pulsating original music with a cover or two (they do an outrageous Aerosmith redux!). Purple Haze Magazine has highlighted them as “definitely one to keep your eyes on\,” enthusing that their “raw talent and energy is infectious.” The quintet consists of Robbie Dylan (lead vocals)\, Josh Alfano (lead guitar)\, Jack Kaiser (rhythm guitar\, vocals)\, Jonathan Tatooles (drums)\, and Erik McIntyre (bass). \n\n\n\nExpect no facades\, no mysticism\, no pretenses. Expect only one thing with Ace Monroe: sleek\, unapologetic\, hard-driving music that not only rocks but rolls. Whoever said there is no more great\, original rock & roll has not heard Ace Monroe! They will bring it\, guarantied. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Accommodations Sponsor

SUMMARY:Hard Day's Night
DESCRIPTION:A Reston Concert on the Town favorite that packs the house whenever it plays! Hailing from Cleveland\, Hard Day’s Night has been wowing audiences in America and abroad since 1996. It is the full Beatles experience: wearing stitch-for-stitch costume replications; playing authentic Vox\, Hofner\, Gretsch\, Rickenbacker\, and Ludwig instruments; and playing the classics we know and love with staggering precision. \n\n\n\nHard Day’s Night is privileged to recreate and perform the magical music of the Beatles for fans young and old and thrilled to introduce a whole new generation of Beatles fans to the excitement of a Beatles concert! They are dedicated to keeping Beatlemania alive in one of the most authentic\, all-live stage tributes seen today\, proud to carry on the legacy of the number one rock ‘n roll group of all time – the Beatles. Our audience knows and loves this band\, which has delivered year after year to huge crowds. It is why we decided to Get Back\, err\, get them back to Reston! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Hospitality Sponsor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Accommodations Sponsor

SUMMARY:The Ocean Blue
DESCRIPTION:Getting their start as teenagers in the late ‘80s in Hershey\, PA\, The Ocean Blue released their self-titled debut on the famed Sire Records label that launched many of their most beloved bands in the U.S.\, including the Smiths\, Echo & the Bunnymen\, and the Pretenders. Embraced by alternative radio and MTV\, the band quickly made their mark with early singles Between Something And Nothing\, Drifting Falling\, and Ballerina Out of Control\, each Top Ten hits on U.S. college and Billboard’s Modern Rock Radio charts. \n\n\n\nEarly success set in motion a run of four major label albums— The Ocean Blue (1989 Sire)\, Cerulean (1991 Sire)\, Beneath the Rhythm and Sound (1993 Sire)\, and See The Ocean Blue (1996 Mercury). The band continued with a string of independent releases in the 2000s\, including Davy Jones Locker (2000 March)\, Waterworks (2003 W.A.R.)\, Ultramarine (2013 Korda)\, and Kings and Queens/Knaves and Thieves (2019 Korda). With eight albums and several EPs under their belt\, the band continues to perform and record around the world\, with work underway on a new album\, and shows in cities throughout the U.S. in 2026. First time as part of the Reston Concerts on the Town.

Each artist brings a unique flavor to create a sound that is vibrant\, cohesive\, and greater than the sum of its parts.
