CLIFTON PARK — Cinematic rock band STARSET - featuring front man Dustin Bates and his helmeted-and-pressure-suited crew, bassist Ron DeChant, guitarist Brock Richards and drummer Adam Gilbert – will stage a show on Monday, May 8 at Upstate Concert Hall, located at 1208 Route 146.
The band is on tour in support of their critically acclaimed sophomore album “Vessels,” which debuted in January at number 11 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart.
Blurbage: Front man Dustin Bates becomes the deus-ex-machina in an age of information overload that is increasingly complex yet ultimately human. From atmospheric opener, “Back To The Earth” to the driving hooks of the album’s first single, “Monster” to the catchy, nearly progressive moments of “Frequency,” Bates has succeeded in escaping the gravity of formula radio rock. Instead, he has re-imagined his genre-defying vision as an arena where Hans Zimmer interfaces with Radiohead and Trent Reznor. For more information, visit the venue at: http://upstateconcerthall.com/.
