Demi Lovato & Hot Chelle Rae, June 28
Demi Lovato has pipes and knows how to use ‘em! This girl can really sing. In fact, she’ll blow you away both on her record and live. Demi’s edgy rocker voice and endless amount of energy adds even more to her fun pop rock/R&B-styled songs. If you aren’t hooked – you will be. And what’s better? Demi has a blast on stage and is able to get everyone excited about her music. She really portrays the fact that she is a just a regular girl (with an incredible voice) which makes her very relatable to her audiences. Look out, Hannah Montana.

Still not sold? Three words: Hot Chelle Rae. Now this band will get you ready for the summer. Hot Chelle Rae’s feel-good, upbeat songs are ones that will stick in your head all season (in a good way). It’s hard to resist the temptation of rolling the windows down and turning the radio up when their hit, “Tonight Tonight” comes on, so I can only imagine how awesome their concert is going to be. Hot Chelle Rae is “hot”: The band has it all – the rock band feel, the pop anthems, and an undying energy to keep an audience on their feet for hours. Tickets are selling out fast, but I hope to see you guys out there for one of the best pop concerts of the summer on June 24 at 7pm!
Matisyahu has helped re-popularize the reggae music of today. Incorporating pop and rap elements into his songs, the Hasidic Jewish rapper is known for his originality and inspirational lyrics. The best part about him is that he is known for his killer live performances (come to the concert to see for yourself!). What else makes him so cool? Matisyahu is a crazy talented beat-boxer. For those of you who don’t know – beatboxing is vocal percussion (see link here: Matisyahu Beatboxing) and the rapper incorporates it into a lot of his music. Another reason to get excited for this concert? It’s at 3pm! Watch the sunset, eat a late snack out on the lawn, get a nice tan while it’s still light – what’s not to love? To get a feel for Matisyahu’s music, I would look up his album, “Light.” Don’t miss Matisyahu on Sunday, July 8th at 3pm!
Matisyahu will also be joined on stage by The Dirty Heads! No, I’m not lying, they will be right here at Wolf Trap with Matisyahu playing your favorites: “Lay Me Down” and “Spread Too Thin.” They’ll be taking the stage with their reggae/rock sound all afternoon and you don’t want to miss it.

This summer, Wolf Trap will have some of the hottest acts performing right here at the Filene Center! My new found favorite, Wilco, will be here July 17 & 18 to give off some great summer vibes.
Hailing from Chicago (my hometown!), Wilco has made a name for themselves through energetic live performances and constant experimentation with different genres of music that helps their music remain fresh and relevant. Their latest album The Whole Love mixes alternative rock undertones with upbeat pop lyrics, making it the perfect summer album!
Check them out on Spotify so that you can be ready to sing along this July!

Ingrid Michaelson came to my little Iowa college a few years ago for a concert in our gym. It was SUCH a good show. She wore glasses, her hair was thrown back in a messy ponytail, and she interacted with the audience a ton. Basically, she just seemed incredibly normal and down to earth – except that she also makes some very fun and beautiful music. So at this concert I’m sure we can expect rockin’, refreshing music and an attitude that makes you feel you’ve walked into Ingrid’s living room for a cup of coffee.
I was first introduced to Rufus Wainwright through his version of “Hallelujah” on the Shrek soundtrack as I would dance my way through the album back in elementary school. His CD Poses then became a staple in my music library during high school. Since then he’s sort of fallen off my radar a bit, but I’m looking forward to hearing his unique pop-rock style with a poignant, dramatic flair at Wolf Trap. It’s sort of hard to explain his unique voice and style…check him out on YouTube or Spotify!
