About
BIG DATA IN CONCERT:
Electrorock outfit Big Data generated significant buzz in 2013 with their breakout hit "Dangerous", a hook-laden slice of funky electro that featured fellow New York band Joywave. The track's slick beat, heavy bassline, and kaleidoscopic synth lines sound better than ever in concert, and the band's infectious energy always gets crowds moving and shaking. Big Data may be new to the scene, but their polished tracks and dance-heavy live shows have them well on their way to the big leagues.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Big Data is the project of Rochester, New York-based musician and producer Alan Wilkis. Wilkis made his debut in late 2013 with the 1.0 EP, a concept mini-album that offered commentary on society's ever-complicated relationship with technology in the form of four glittering electrorock tracks. The Joywave-featured lead single "Dangerous" was a breakthrough hit, landing at No. 2 on Billboard's Alternative Songs chart and cracking the Top 20 on the Rock Songs chart. A remix album -- the 1.5 EP -- followed shortly after, featuring eight different interpretations of "Dangerous" by artists like Joywave, Bad Cop, and CHAPPO. With their catchy, dance-friendly tracks and razor-sharp personal style, Big Data are a rising new act ticket buyers won't want to miss on tour.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Incredible energy!
by Mo0411 on 3/29/15Bowery Ballroom - New YorkEverything about this show was brilliant! From the small, intimate venue to the incredible stage energy by Big Data, the whole concert was one for the books. First- Chappo, the first opening band, was awesome. Lead singer came onto the floor and was super interactive, dancing with many of the audience! Second opening band, On and On, were phenomenal. They have a great sound and hopefully a very promising future. Then, Big Data came on and was just incredible from the get go. They use creative banners, replicating the "big data" quintessential platforms, such as google, hulu, and others. Lead singers were incredible, dancing was off the charts, and visuals were captivating. This was a show not to be missed, and I'm so glad I was there!

by PhilE01 on 3/28/15The Sinclair - CambridgeBig Data really takes it to the next level, with an energy-packed danceable show that my friends and I went nuts for. Great music. One of the best shows I've EVER seen--I suggest you catch Big Data on tour ASAP. The in-between-songs computer voice is hilarious and audience participation top notch.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Big Data's best show yet! So much fun!
by CyberneticNixie on 3/28/15Bowery Ballroom - New YorkCoinciding with the release of Big Data's debut album, 2.0, this performance was the first stop on the Gimme Data Tour and the energy was through the roof! We also got the added bonus of guest performers Martina Sorbara of Dragonette and Bear Hands' Dylan Rau, providing the vocals for the songs they respectively collaborated on-- one of the perks of a Big Data concert when friends happen to be in town-- You never know who might show up :D An amazing show in general. The band really throws themselves into the performance, and it's a giant party. Sure, it's a reminder of how much controversy there is about privacy, freedom, emotional connectivity, and the value of such things in the digital age, but the exploration of that is artful and as celebratory as it is critical. The future is here, and it's brilliant and dark, sometimes scary and often breathtaking, weird, but awesome-- so we might as well dance. Very much recommended!

by smokeyblue on 12/26/14The National - RichmondI strictly went to this event to see RDGLDGRN. They were amazing and we would have very much liked to have had them on stage for more than 30 minutes. While I had a good time, I feel like there were too many bands crammed into one evening and none of them really got enough stage time. Would LOVE to have RDGLDGRN play this venue again as the headliner, or at allotted at least an hour to perform.

Rating: 3 out of 5 Big Data's 1st Live Show
by LAVASEATS on 6/11/14Santa Barbara Bowl - Santa BarbaraI saw Big Data preform live for the first time. It was an interesting set. The DJ was way into the show. He used all sorts of hand instruments. The lead female singer had a good monotone persona. But besides that they didn't have too much going for the show. They definitely have potential to be a great live show. But over all it was pretty smooth for their first live show.
