Decades into their career, 311 kept Phoenix on its feet with a set spanning longtime staples and newer material.
311 brought their fall tour through Phoenix, and they didn’t disappoint! Fans from all around came ready to party on a beautiful Thursday evening this November.
On this tour, 311 was joined by Tunnel Vision and Beach Weather. Opening the evening, Tunnel Vision brought the energy to get the crowd ready for an exciting night. Mixing reggae and pop-punk, Tunnel Vision got the crowd moving and grooving to some catchy tunes. Many fans could be seen sporting their merch and singing along to their favorite songs.
Continuing the energy, Beach Weather gave the audience just what they needed. Their alternative synth-pop sound makes it impossible for one to stand still. Lead vocalist Nick Santino truly knows how to work the stage. Nonstop movements and theatrics happened throughout the set without missing a beat. Reeve Powers (bass/vocals) and Sean Silverman (guitar/vocals) joined Nick on stage, not straying away from the fun.
Beach Weather is able to constantly keep the crowd engaged because each song they play has a different feeling and vibe. By mixing genres, they’re able to create a constant flow of different energies throughout their set. Beach Weather played many of their popular songs as well as a decent number of songs off their most recent album, 'Melt.'
311 closed the evening with another excellent set. Not stopping short of carrying the energy from the previous bands, 311 opened their set with a few of their classic songs, including ‘Beautiful Disaster’ and ‘Love Song.' Fans cheered and sang from the beginning, with a few crowd surfers coming out during their heavier riffs. They also played a few songs off their most recent album, ‘Full Bloom,' which came out in 2024. After touring for more than 20 years, the band still knows how to keep the crowd engaged and excited for the whole night.
The five-piece band consists of Nick Hexum (vocals/guitar), Chad Sexton (drums), P-Nut (bass), Tim Mahoney (guitar), and Sa Martinez (vocals/percussion). Each member was allowed to shine, highlighting their instruments in their riffs and solos.
311 blends many genres, including metal, hip-hop, reggae, and funk, creating a space where anyone is welcome and can find a tune they appreciate. Fans anticipate a possible new album within the next year, which seems to be in the works as the band continues to tour.
