The Band Perry is a GRAMMY®, CMA, and ACM Award-winning trio known for their genre-defying Appalachian gothic sound amplified by heartfelt, original storytelling, dynamic musicianship, and high-energy performance. Since bursting onto the scene with their nine-time Platinum smash hit "If I Die Young," the Perry siblings have captivated audiences worldwide. Composed of Kimberly Perry, Reid Perry, and Johnny Costello, the band's 2025 return marks the end of hiatus and the start of a new artistic era. Spanning a decade-plus of music and two albums, The Band Perry has sold two and a half million albums, 12 million singles, and racked up over 1 billion streams.
Boston-bred funk and alt-pop band Ripe is known for their high-energy live shows and irresistibly danceable sound. Fronted by Robbie Wulfsohn alongside Jon Becker (guitar), Sampson Hellerman (drums), and Calvin Barthel (trombone), the group has built a devoted following with their vibrant performances and hook-filled songs. Their latest album, Play the Game, released September 19, 2025, showcases the band's evolution while staying true to the joyful, crowd-moving spirit that defines their music.
This event is provided for your enjoyment by the businesses of Town Center of Virginia Beach, Armada Hoffler, Marathon Consulting and Cantina Laredo, WVEC, and the City of Virginia Beach. Produced by the Central Business District Association and IMGoing.
