No matter what your favorite genre is, the live experience is unparalleled – but we wanted to take a dive into some of the standout concerts across every style of music. From pop to rock, each genre has its heroes and we’ve compiled some of the best gigs ever to grace stages worldwide.
Country Music
The folksy twang of country could calm any raging soul after a long day at work. If you’re searching for a warm and wholesome country experience, Jason Aldean or Luke Bryan should top your to-do list. Imagine them performing live, their tough country-style striking a chord in your heart – creating a moment you’ll never forget.

Come nighttime, and it’s the beats of hip-hop that light up the stage. The stars in this genre breathe adrenaline into their live acts – MF Doom, Wu-Tang Clan, Kendrick Lamar, and Run the Jewels, just to name a few.
R&B Music
R&B soothes the very core that makes us human – how beautiful is that? The slow rhythm, accompanied by heavenly vocals, is an invitation to sway and feel every beat. Several acts deserve a spot here – Anita Baker, Sade, and Toni Braxton to name a few. But to stick with one, we’ve got Jill Scott: Timeless energy, epic delivery, and pure poetry.
