About

AGAINST THE CURRENT:

New York pop punk trio Against the Current is quickly rising the ranks with their fresh sound, heart-pounding live performances, and soaring anthems like "Gravity" and "Infinity". Frontwoman Chrissy Costanza cuts an impressive figure on stage, belting out the band's powerful tunes with passion and intensity without ever breaking her effortless cool. Her two bandmates -- Dan Gow on guitar and Will Ferri on drums -- give oomph to her already-punchy performances, making for an epic concert experience fans of melodic pop punk goodness don't want to miss.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Against the Current formed in New York in 2011 when young singer Chrissy Costanza joined forces with Dan Gow and Will Ferri. The group started writing songs and posting them to YouTube, and they got their first break in 2012 when their version of "Good Time" -- a cover of the Owl City and Carly Rae Jepson song  recorded with YouTube sensation Alex Goot -- started racking up plays. The band released a string of singles in the early '10s including originals like "Thinking" and popular covers of Taylor Swift's "Red" and "Shake It Off", and in 2014 they released their debut EP Infinity. The 5-song collection was a perfect snapshot of the band's unique sound, drawing praise from critics and building excitement among ticket buyers for Against the Current's next round on the road.

    Best. Concert. EVER!

    by Lack_of_reality on 10/6/21Mercury Lounge - New York

    This was only my second concert I’ve ever been to, but oh boy was it incredible! Concrete Castles crushed the opener. Audra has such amazing stage presence and Matt shreds like no other! Sam is great on drums too. At that point, I was already satisfied, but then ATC came in and just made it an unforgettable night! Chrissy is literally a bundle of energy and joy and it was so amazing seeing her perform live. So glad I went. Thank you to everyone who made it happen <3

    Amazing everytime!

    by ATCLOVER on 3/17/17Multiple! - NYC

    Ive followed the band around for about three years on the east coast and ive never been disappointed. Ive gotten to hangout with them (and even some of their friends and relatives) and they are genuinely just great people. Chrissy, Dan, and Will have such a great stage prescence and you cant help but get pumped, especially seeing Chrissy jump around on stage. Powerful voice for a tiny woman!!

    Amazing performance!!

    by Lilnida on 1/17/17The Foundry - Philadelphia

    Against the Current blew me away with their show. It was my first time seeing them and I went in with reasonable expectations since they are a younger band, but they perform like a well-seasoned band!! Chrissy Costanza's stage performance is something to be reckoned with, she's like a brunette Hayley Williams in her prime. Girl can rock!!

    Amazing live performance!!

    by JGBD on 1/16/17Irving Plaza - New York

    Chrissy has such an amazing stage presence and she really gives it her all. On top of a great live vocal performance she also takes time to explain the stories behind their songs which I always love when artists do to connect with the audience and give the songs more meaning. Would definitely go again!

    Sad I didn't actually get to see them.

    by bmajjjj on 12/17/16The Shelter - Detroit

    The opening bands were very good. Although the set up for the sets took way too long, and after 2 and half hours Against The Current was nowhere to be seen, and I had to leave.

    'All Over' the openers

    by cestsamedi on 12/3/16The Cambridge Room at House Of Blues - Dallas

    I bought tickets to the show mainly for the opening bands, CRUISR and Beach Weather, but I was wonderfully blown away by ATC. Chrissy Costanza has a voice!! It's been great to see these guys go from YouTube to center stage. Highly recommend seeing any of these guys if you have the chance.

    ATC and the three opening acts: Viewpoints, Beach Weather and Cruisr were all amazing and you should totally go see them in concert when you have a chance. They were more amazing than I could have ever imagined!

    Don't Miss a Chance to See Against the Current

    by NorcrossC on 11/26/15Brighton Music Hall - Boston

    Fantastic show! This group has talent, high energy, and a great future in music! I first saw them last spring because my teenage daughter needed a ride to the show, and I became a big fan myself!

    I've been a fan of ATC for a while now and this show did not disappoint. The opening acts were pretty cool. ATC played a bunch of their songs that happen to be some of my favorites. There was one point where someone passed out in the crowd and the show had to stop for a few minutes so the individual could get the help they needed but the band members kept talking to the people in the crowd. Overall, the show was awesome!
