About

Ticket buyers will likely never guess that Santa Cruz-born Lorin Ashton, better known as Bassnectar, grew up influenced by rock heavyweights like Megadeth and Metallica and grunge pioneers Nirvana. An interest in ambient acts like Orbital may be less surprising. The electronic music guru—both a DJ and a producer—now delivers electrifying, bass-heavy concerts (hence the name) that typically feature creative remixed tributes like "Seek and Destroy (Bassnectar Remix)" alongside laser light shows that awe tour and festival attendees. Many Bassnectar creations also meld socio-political statements from personalities like Martin Luther King, Jr. and Noam Chomsky into the electronic grooves.

Though he's made more than  a dozen free downloadable mixtapes available at his website since 1999, Bassnectar has also unleashed several full-length albums, including a couple more recent releases on his own label, Amorphous Music. The 2012 release "Vava Voom" features a collaboration with Lupe Fiasco on the title track, as well as "Pennywise Tribute," a remix of Pennywise's own single, "Bro Hymn (Tribute)."

    The only thing i did not care for was the fact that the bathroom was down stairs. For Aragon Ballroom being my first really big show it was great no one in our 14 person group got into any trouble and the metro station was across the street. Over all this was an amazing show and halloween made it 10 times better.

    This performance was absolutely amazing. I guarantee the Aragon was the best place to be for Halloween 2010. Sound was incredible and the light show was insane.

    NOT NORMAL NECTAR

    by bsutt on 11/1/10Eagles Club/The Rave/Eagles Ballroom - Milwaukee

    Who cares if there are so many people that you can barely breathe, the bass just envelops you and nothing else matters. Everyone attending has one thing in common - LOVE OF BASSNECTAR - so everyone eventually gets along just fine. GREAT SHOW!

    Great time, awesome venue. Bassnectar's set was a little short (a little less than 2 hours) and he could've got the crowd a little more into but it was a good show overall.

    The actual show was phenomenal. At least the part that I saw. Doors opened at 7:30, I was in line at 9 and stood outside until 11:15. I missed half the show! Seems like I should have gotten a partial refund or something.

    WOmP WoMp BASSNECTAR

    by Lizardddddd on 11/1/10Aragon Ballroom - Chicago

    Bassnectar put on an amazing show. It was an amazing time, especially on Halloween weekend. Also, the concert venue was so unorganized, we waited outside so long that I never even got my ticket, they just let us bust in.

    Simply Magical

    by BassHead66 on 10/31/10The Intersection - Grand Rapids

    This was the most incredible live show I have seen to this day. We all know Nectar's music is the best, but you haven't lived unless you've been to the show. Stimulation from all angles, ensuring a full on Nectarization every time. Thanks to the Intersection and Bassnectar for one of my most memorable nights of my life.
