No Upcoming Events!

Rainbow Kitten Surprise isn't just a band with an eye-catching name; they're an ensemble that delivers a sound as unique as their moniker. You can trace their roots back to the dorm rooms of Appalachian State University, where lead singer Sam Melo and bassist Charlie Holt first started making music together. Over time, they grew into a five-piece ensemble that includes Ethan Goodpaster, Jess Haney, and Darrick "Bozzy" Keller. In their meteoric rise, they've shared stages with acts like Mt. Joy, CAAMP, and even The Lumineers, but nothing can replace the unique experience of a standalone RKS show.

One of the standout aspects of a Rainbow Kitten Surprise show is the seamless blend of genres. From indie to folk and rock, their music feels like an emotional journey. A smaller venue like Saturn in Birmingham, Alabama offers an intimate setting where their lyrical genius shines, and you feel connected to every word. Here, getting the best seats is easy; the front row provides an up-close experience, almost like a personal serenade, while balcony seats offer a panoramic view without losing any of the auditory magic.

However, larger venues, like the KEMBA Live! in Columbus, Ohio, offer their own set of advantages. While the scale of the venue amplifies the grandeur of their performance, the layout provides options for everyone's taste. For those who want to be in the heart of the action, pit tickets are the way to go, but the mezzanine offers an elevated view of the stage and superior acoustics. And let's not forget about VIP options. If you're interested in amenities like private bars or lounges, these usually come with premium ticket options, which can range from $150-$300 depending on the venue and availability.

In contrast, smaller venues like The Knitting Factory in Boise, Idaho, offer a more down-to-earth experience. Tickets here are generally more affordable, ranging from $30-$60. Although the venue has a general admission policy, arriving early can secure you a spot at the front, perfect for the audiophile who doesn’t want to miss a single note.

The Jefferson Theater in Charlottesville, Virginia, is another venue that deserves a mention. The historical site adds another layer to the concert-going experience. Like many smaller venues, it offers a tiered floor, providing a good view and great sound no matter where you stand. Tickets here usually range from $35-$75, a small price to pay for the quality of the experience.

Speaking of price, Rainbow Kitten Surprise tickets can vary widely based on the venue and the city. Smaller venues and less populated areas will usually cost you less, ranging from $30-$60. For larger venues in bigger cities, you could be looking at $100-$300 for premium spots.

While it's not uncommon to see the band's tickets sold out weeks or even months in advance, various secondary markets often offer last-minute options. However, prices can be significantly marked up, so plan ahead for the best deal and seats.

So whether you're a long-time fan or new to the hypnotic world of Rainbow Kitten Surprise, the combination of their Musical prowess and the distinctive characteristics of the venues they play ensures an unforgettable experience. And remember, the best seats aren't just a place to sit; they're your ticket to an emotional journey led by one of the most engaging bands out there.
