Simply the Best!

Favorite moment: Parted Ways had a little extra energy! But frankly the entire show was terrific! @

Setlist: Grab a copy of Arrow-- they played tons of their new tunes, mixed in with some great older jams! @

Opening act(s): Dead Confederate (& they are awesome as well!)
See these bands together-- they compliment eachother nicely. @

If you want to see a killer show with tons of energy, riveting vocals, a funky bassist/ pianist, a lead guitarist that can shred, & drums that keep you dancing; then there is no other option-- you HAVE to see the Heartless Bastards. This band can jam! & man, do they ever! Amazing stage presence, they love their fans & you can feel it right from the first strum. <3
I can't wait to see these folks again!

Powerful set list with gems from every album. My only complaint is with my fellow Bostonians as the venue was only about 1/3 full. Saw a sold out Alabama Shakes show at House of Blues a couple weeks ago, and without Heartless Bastards they would not exist. What gives?

This band kicked some ass, they are one of the tightest band I have seen in a long time even when Erika inadvertently shut off or unplugged her mic, they didn't miss a beat. From the opening with The Mountain till they closed with Gray they had the crowd in their hands even had this Old Fart shaken my booty LOL <;) The crowd was a good mix from young to old, will see them next time they come thru town.
One thing negative to say but not about the band, is that I've been to this venue a few times and don't like how they kick us out at the end of shows so they can change over to a dance club. Hangin out with the band after show is part of the experience of going to a live show that they have taken that away because most of the bands are very approachable!!

The Heartless Bastards' catalogue reached its peak in the most recent album, Arrow, and their live show is a force to be contended with. Erika Wennerstrom's voice is powerful enough to cut straight to the core, leave you breathless and teary. Everything that sounds good on the album sounds that much better live. An excellent show, and I can't wait to see them again.

The show was great! The atmosphere and venue were awesome!! We actually got 2 shows for the price of one because These United States came out first and played several songs. They have a quirky lead singer who loves to interact with the audience, so it made for a great experience! Then the Heartless Bastard's came out and played music from their current and previous albums. The live performance was wonderful. I would highly recommend going to their show to anyone!!!

One of my favorite shows of the year so far. I see a lot of shows and I didn't really expect it.

She was a spot on front-woman who i expected to carry the show but she certainly didn't do it alone. This band is super tight and competent. No one blew me away but that didn't appear to be their thing, they were just a really strong, well put together four piece power band. She, the front woman, was accomplished, passionate, powerful, and humble. For a band with this format to headline the Fillmore and nearly sell it out on a Thursday is quite an accomplishment and you could see and sense her happiness which was a bonus for me. The lead guitar player was also unassuming but perfect. Adding his unique brush to the canvas in the most appropriate way at every step.

The show itself was well paced and every song was well crafted. A 10 of 10 for me and I'll definitely be back.

Favorite moment: Besides Erika's voice would be Dave's drumming on 'Arrow' - subtlety powerful like the heart of a Union soldier hidden in a shadow. @

You could taste how much they love to play as the grooves stirred the air around us, and what a great crowd (nice normal Bastards lovers)

Erika wooed the crowd with her Viking strong voice and her daisy charms and I'd have hopped in her pocket in a second had I half the chance. The rest of the family provided shoulders to fly upon and my only complaint is I can't find one of their T-Shirts in 4X (could I be their biggest fan twice over).

I can't wait to see them again and again and hope they'd all stop by for dinner next time they're in my neck of the woods (10 miles off the GWB - Erika drop me a line :o)

and I bet she could have hooked a hundred husbands that night had she been so inclined..

Dave Colvin on drums impressed me with his subtle

The show was amazing! We have an almost-2-year-old daughter and this was our first official night out since her birth (I know, right?) and I could not be happier! The night was blustery and cold and wet, but definitely worth it. The band is so talented and gritty and unique, I'm eager to go see them again in the future. Kudos!!!!

We stood on the edge of the mezzanine, got there super early and had a great view. Just watch out for encroachers! Also, avoid standing right above the smoke machine, it puffs out smoke every 4 - 5 minutes and I'm sure blocked those concert-goers' views. We were halfway back from the front (stage left) and it was perfect.
