Arctic Monkeys
Undoubtedly one of the biggest acts at LouFest this year, Arctic Monkeys doesn’t know how to put on a mellow show if it tried. That might be because its fans have come to expect nothing less than the psychedelic hardcore indie rock trend that Arctic Monkeys represents. So if you aren’t already pumped up for this year’s festival, you might want to cue these British rock gods for your preparation.
Although the Brits were the first to ardently fall in love with the band, the U.S. wasn’t far behind. See the group’s record-breaking album sales, seven Brit Awards, two Grammy nominations and Mercury Prize for reference.
Since its genesis in 2002, Arctic Monkeys has corralled a fervently loyal fan base via its intoxicating rhythms and resonate energy. This LouFest, the band that brought the world hits such as “A Certain Romance” and “I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor” will enliven a St. Louis stage once more.
