Last summer, popular folk band The Lumineers played at the Gorge Amphitheatre – and the concert was met with so much success that they’re coming back again this September. The Pavilion recently drew in names like Lord Huron, whose song “The Night We Met” has over 1.2 billion streams on Spotify alone, and four-time Grammy nominee Phoebe Bridgers played the venue last summer. But recently, this region of the Pacific Northwest has made a name for itself as a destination for a variety of musical genres – big names in indie, pop, and hip-hop alike are all starting to take interest in Eastern Washington’s unique concert venues.
