Recommended: Starset @ The Marquis Theater
American rock band Starset hails from Columbus, Ohio, although the band claims other-worldly purpose. Starset bases its music and sole function on transmitting signals picked up from outer space for the people to hear, and the music they create reflects this. The group’s multimedia story might be the reason behind their rapid rise in popularity, along with their progressive electronic rock sound.

Recommended: The Neal Morse Band @ The Oriental Theater
Neal Morse began his career with Spock’s Beard, a band he formed with his brother in the ’90s. Soon after, however, Morse converted to Christianity and began an entirely new music venture: Christian rock . Today, Morse performs with The Neal Morse Band which draws inspiration mostly directly from John Bunyan’s 1678 book “The Pilgrim’s Progress From This World To The That Which Is To Come: Delivered Under The Similitude Of A Dream,” a book detailing a man’s journey to deliverance.
