Come September, STS9 is going to bring the sound to its tribe at Red Rocks once again.

Rock, funk, jazz, hip hop, electronica – whatever you wanna call it, be sure to bring along your dancing shoes.

The Sept. 8-10 stop at the beloved Morrison, Colo., venue marks STS9’s 15th consecutive year at Red Rocks for a total of 23 performances. The residency is extra special this year because the livetronica band is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

“We are so excited and truly honored to play Red Rocks to kick off the celebration of STS9’s first 20 years,” the band said in a joint statement. “Red Rocks is a very special place to us and one of the most incredible stages on the planet. Every year leading up to RRX we take stock of where we are musically and the path we want to blaze going forward. This year, we wanted to give thanks and share the stage with some of the artists who have inspired us along the way. Thank you for the love and support; we’ve become quite a big family over the years 🙂 Looking forward to the next 20!”

aLIVE Coverage – STS9
Fillmore Auditorium, Denver, Colo.

The Sept. 8 show will feature STS9 playing Artifact, in its entirety for the first time since its 2005 release. The band will be joined by Michal Menert, El Ten Eleven and Moon Boots.

The next night includes support from Sub-ID and Richard Devine.

The run closes out Sept. 10 with an acoustic “Axe The Cables” set during STS9’s full show, along with support from Troyboi, LTJ Bukem featuring Armanni Reign, and Soul Clap.

Some acts will be performing “in the round,” meaning the set will be played from the middle of the audience, rather than front and center.

STS9’s previously announced schedule includes U.S. headline dates in April and a few gigs with Pretty Lights in Quincy, Wash., Aug. 4-5.

Presale tickets for Red Rocks go on sale April 19. The general public onsale starts April 21.
