Sensational alt-metal bands Disturbed, Staind, and Bad Wolves are bringing their signature sounds to the Blossom Music Center!

Disturbed were formed in Chicago (Illinois) in 1997 by Dan Donegan (guitar), Mike Wengren (drums), Fuzz (bass), and David Draiman (vocals). Their musical style's best described as a blend of alternative metal (a genre that infuses heavy metal with influences from alternative rock and other genres not normally associated with metal), nü-metal (a form of alternative metal that combines elements of heavy metal music with elements of other music genres such as hip hop, alternative rock, funk, and grunge), and rap metal (a sub-genre of rap rock and alternative metal that combines hip hop with heavy metal, usually consisting of heavy metal guitar riffs, funk metal elements, rapped vocals, and sometimes turntables). They cite Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Metallica, Pantera, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Queensrÿche, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Soundgarden as their main influences. They’ve had a stellar career with 8 studio albums (5 of which topped the US Billboard 200 chart), 2 live albums, 1 compilation album, 1 extended play, 30 singles (10 of which hit #1 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart), 25 music videos, and 3 video albums. The band currently consists of Dan, Mike, David, and bassist John Moyer.
