Sleeping With Sirens' SOLD OUT return to Reading on the 'Family Trees Tour'

May 25, 2023

Fresh off the release of their newest album, 'Full Collapse,' Sleeping With Sirens returned to Pennsylvania for an intimate SOLD OUT performance at Reverb in Reading.

Long known as a touring mainstay and approaching legendary status within the scene at this point in their career - Sleeping With Sirens are currently on the road on what they've called the 'Family Tree Tour' named for one of the many excellent songs off their recent released. Although the line up may be a bit different than when the band burst onto the scene in 2010 it has been relatively consistent since 2020 with the band releasing 2 of their best albums with this current group. Frontman Kellin Quinn has led the band through highs and lows throughout their decade plus career with dozens of tours, festivals & more but nothing compares to the revival of the scene that took place through (and after) the pandemic. Sleeping With Sirens were never truly gone so it's hard to say they are "back" but it safe to say they better than ever as they've found new energy within their material and their fans have helped sell out multiple tours in a row now.

Across 15 songs Kellin Quinn and Sleeping With Sirens delivered a flawless career-spanning set that had the crowd moshing and crowd surfing from start to finish. The band wasted no time getting the night started strong as they walked on stage to a burst of illuminated LED lights and a video wall with their logo brightly displayed. Suddenly the crowd lurched forward as Kellin Quinn shouted hello and the band kicked off the opening riffs of "Tally It Up: Settle the Score" that instantly resulted in crowd surfers coming over the barricade. All night the crowd gave Sleeping With Sirens 250% of their energy as they moshed, screamed, sang, danced and crowd surfed like the show was the last one they'd ever be at. Reverb in Reading is easily the smallest venue the band is playing this tour and this intimate show gave the band's fans a chance to be closer than ever to their favorite group.


Through out the night Kellin Quinn strutted across the stage and made sure to high five as many fans as he could while security was doing their best to contain the ocean of surfers coming over. A few well placed acoustic songs gave the band, the crowd and security a second to catch their breathe but things quickly picked back up at the end of the set. The notable highlights of the set came as a surprise as many would have expected to be some of the band's more notable work like "If You Can't Hang" or their cover of "Iris" when in fact it ended up being the majority of their new songs. Quinn did belt out perfect vocals on the old songs however but there was a different energy and vigor amongst all of the guys during the choruses of "Talking to Myself" and even more noticeably on songs like "Bloody Knuckles" and "Crosses."


As the night came to a close and the final crowd surfers made their way across the barricade fans began to file towards the exits very much aware of how special of a night this sold out show in Reading. PA was. Sleeping With Sirens have played venues 2x and 3x larger through out this entire tour and Reverb was treated to a stunning performance on a Tuesday night from one of the best band's in the scene. These shows don't happen very often but when they do they are the ones that people talk about for years to come. Will Sleeping With Sirens be back to Reverb? We sure hope so because Reading, PA will be there to turn up for them and give it all even if it is a school night for many.

Stone Temple Pilots return to Pennsylvania to headline RockFest

By Matt Christine • September 16, 2025
Stone Temple Pilots’ return to Pennsylvania for RockFest was more than just another stop on tour as the band isn't on the road promoting a new album or anything particular at the moment making this one off show truly special. Their festival headline slot was a true celebration of a band that has not only endured but continues to thrive. After more than twenty years of music, their headline performance in Grantville showed that Stone Temple Pilots are still writing their best chapters. When Jeff Gutt first stepped in as lead singer, fans were curious about how he would fill the shoes of such an iconic role of those who came before him. A few years and countless shows later, there’s no longer any question. Gutt has evolved into the frontman the band always seemed to be waiting for - powerful, confident, and endlessly engaging. His vocals are as sharp and reliable as ever, but his presence has grown into something magnetic. Whether pacing the stage with fiery energy or locking eyes with fans in the crowd, Gutt now owns every moment in the spotlight. It has reached a point where it is harder to imagine Stone Temple Pilots without Gutt versus any version prior to his arrival with the band. As always, Robert and Dean DeLeo provided the backbone of STP’s unmistakable sound. Their tight musicianship and playful energy were the perfect counterbalance to Gutt’s intensity as he sprinted around the stage (and even jump off into the crowd at one point). The brothers looked like they were having just as much fun as the crowd, trading riffs, smiles, and moments of pure musical joy throughout the night. It was a reminder that their chemistry is the true heartbeat of this band, and it’s never sounded stronger. The night was a journey through the full scope of Stone Temple Pilots’ career. Fans were treated to a perfect balance of old favorites, deeper cuts, and fresh material. “Big Bang Baby” was a standout moment of the set early on, soaring with Gutt’s vocals. Hearing the classics re-energized while newer songs slid in seamlessly made the set feel both nostalgic and fresh at the same time. If this RockFest performance was any indication, Stone Temple Pilots are in the middle of an exciting new era. For long-time listeners and new fans alike, that means one thing: it’s time to get ready for more shows, more songs, and more unforgettable nights like this one. What is next for Stone Temple Pilots may be up in the air but one thing is for certain, they remain one of the tightest live bands in the genre.
