I’m not sure if you’ve been paying attention, but the Greek Theatre at UC Berkeley has an incredible season planned! Besides legends like Bob Dylan and Tori Amos, there’s also incredible up-and-comers like Khalid and Royel Otis (who were spectacular at Outside Lands last year). And that’s just a few of the dope acts at the Greek this year.
Just check out this calendar:

And there’s still more to be announced! You can get learn more and get tickets to these shows right here.
Below are some of the show’s I’m most excited about this season:

Royel Otis – April 16th
Royel Otis deliver the kind of breezy, sun-drenched indie pop that feels effortless but sticks with you for days. Their songs balance jangly guitars with sly hooks and a laid-back cool that plays incredibly well live, where their chemistry and charm turn even casual listeners into instant fans.

Lewis Capaldi – May 3rd
Lewis Capaldi is equal parts emotional gut-punch and self-deprecating comic relief, a rare combo that makes his shows feel intimate even in massive venues. His powerhouse vocals carry heartbreak anthems that hit harder live, while his unfiltered banter keeps the whole thing from ever tipping into melodrama. Buy tickets right here.

Alabama Shakes – May 29th & 30th
Alabama Shakes bring a raw, soulful intensity that feels almost timeless, anchored by Brittany Howard’s explosive, genre-defying voice. Their live performances lean into grit and groove, turning blues-rock into something visceral and unpredictable that you don’t just hear—you feel. Buy tickets for the 29th here and the 30th here.

James Blake – June 11th
James Blake creates a live experience that’s hypnotic and emotionally precise, blending electronic minimalism with aching vocals. What can feel sparse on record becomes immersive on stage, with deep bass, haunting silence, and sudden swells that pull you all the way in. Buy tickets right here.

Bob Dylan – June 13th & 14th
Seeing Bob Dylan isn’t just a concert—it’s a brush with living history. His performances are famously unpredictable, with songs reshaped and reinterpreted in ways that reward attention, reminding you that you’re watching one of the most influential songwriters to ever pick up a guitar. Tickets for June 13th are sold out. Buy tickets for June 14th right here.

Khalid – June 26th
Khalid’s smooth, genre-blurring R&B-pop feels built for a crowd, with warm vocals and relatable lyrics that turn arenas into communal sing-alongs. His easygoing stage presence makes the whole night feel less like a performance and more like a shared vibe. Buy tickets right here.

Bob Moses & Cannons – July 17th
Bob Moses sit in that sweet spot between electronic and live instrumentation, delivering dance music with real emotional weight. Their shows pulse with hypnotic beats and moody atmospherics, making it just as easy to get lost in the rhythm as it is to actually feel something.
Cannons specialize in sleek, nocturnal pop that sounds like it belongs in a neon-lit dream. Live, their shimmering synths and Michelle Joy’s airy vocals create a hazy, transportive atmosphere that’s equal parts chill and seductive. Buy tickets right here.

Rainbow Kitten Surprise – July 18th
Rainbow Kitten Surprise thrive on emotional swings and genre mashups, shifting from introspective folk to explosive indie rock without losing cohesion. Their live shows are cathartic and high-energy, driven by raw vocals and a band chemistry that feels almost combustible. Buy tickets right here.
