Santa Barbara Bowl
There are plenty of alt-rock acts that start out great, have a hit or two, and then go completely dark. Some make it a little further than that, drop an album or two, and then vanish from the music scene. The alt-rock scene comprises those; and then there's Interpol - a mainstay, a formidable force to be reckoned with, unstoppable. Since their critically acclaimed 2002 debut *Turn On the Bright Lights* and hits like "Evil," "Obstacle 1," and "Slow Hands," the New York post-punk revivalists have continued to captivate audiences with their brooding sound and atmospheric live performances.

Santa Barbara presents Interpol ripping fearlessly through all those thunderous riffs; those earth-shattering vocal deliveries from Paul Banks that can go from sensitive and quiet to off-the-charts intensity in an instant; that fervent sonic execution that hits the crowd like a ton of bricks; those legendary melodies like "Evil," "Obstacle 1," and "Slow Hands" pumping with pure alternative greatness; those lyrics that gets stuck between your ribs; the unfiltered talent that oozes from the stage, flowing nothing but pure energy into the crowd; and of course, that legendary back catalogue and a feast of new music from their latest album, The Other Side of Make-Believe, being served up in an all-you-can-eat feast. Joining them as special guest is julie.
Nothing, and we repeat, nothing can be more electrifying, more terrific, more exciting than experiencing that for yourself, taken to the next level!
Let's just acknowledge this: Interpol is without a doubt one of the most epic alt-rock acts of all time, and is quite easily one of the most constant and accomplished touring bands on the road today. Since their critically acclaimed 2002 debut Turn On the Bright Lights, Interpol packs even the largest venues across the world without fail, and often pulls up to some of the most iconic venues where only the greatest have gone before. Every time they descend upon the stage, they are as ruthless, as brutal, as daring as ever; they are explosive, punchy, and dominating; and bursting at the seams with that showmanship that keeps the venues packed to the rafters!
Raining down sonic bolts on stages in packed venues every other day, topping the charts without fail, and standing a massive cut above the rest, Interpol keeps spawning new material, getting better with every track - if that is even possible. With their Interpol North America Tour 2026 hitting 23 cities across the US and Canada, fans everywhere are even more enthusiastic, eager-minded, and hungry for catching Interpol live in concert!
