Detroit Concerts

Detroit at one point was one of the largest cultural hotspots for the arts. The Motown record label founded by Berry Gordy was home to one of the most prolific music acts in history. Michael Jackson, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Diana Ross and the Supremes, the Four Tops, and Aretha Franklin are some of the icons signed to the Motown label that helped Detroit solidify its place in music history. The city also has roots in Rock and Roll with such acts as Bob Seger, Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper, and newer acts such as the White Stripes, Detroit Cobras, and the Von Bondies. Detroit concerts are an experience that both artists and concert goers hold in high regard.

Resurgence in the city's economy and popularity has again made it a popular destination for music lovers. The culturally rich art community nestled in Detroit draws fans and musicians from around the world. Detroit concert venues possess a wide diversity and offer an experience unlike any other metropolitan city. From the classy and culturally booming Fillmore to the raw and unchecked atmosphere of St. Andrew's hall, music lovers are sure to find a venue that fits their taste and budget.
