Get ready to turn up the volume and stomp your feet: the Melvins bring their Stop Your Whining Tour to Fox Theatre on Friday, September 12, 2025, with longtime friends Redd Kross opening the night. Doors swing open at 7:00 pm, with the show kicking off at 8:00 pm. All-ages general admission tickets go on sale at 10 AM MT on Friday, May 16th at Z2 Entertainment’s website.
One of modern music’s most influential bands, the Melvins formed in 1983 in Montesano, Washington. Founded by vocalist/guitarist Buzz Osborne and joined a year later by drummer Dale Crover, the Melvins forged a fearless fusion of punk rock’s raw energy and heavy music’s crushing heft—paving the way for sludge and grunge alike. Over the course of more than four decades, they’ve released over 30 studio albums, countless live recordings, and an ever-growing trove of singles and rarities.
Recent highlights include 2021’s Five Legged Dog, a sprawling 36‑track acoustic odyssey that reimagines their heaviest riffs alongside beloved covers, and 2024’s Tarantula Heart, a fearless statement of what the Melvins do, what they can do, and what they want to do next. Along the way, Osborne and Crover have collaborated with icons such as Jello Biafra, Mudhoney, Fantômas, and even teamed up with Mr. Bungle’s Trevor Dunn in their Melvins Lite configuration. In 2012, they made headlines with the “51 States in 51 Days” tour—an ambitious cross‑country journey documented in the film Across The USA in 51 Days.
Joining the Melvins onstage is Redd Kross, whose dynamic blend of power‑pop hooks and punk‑rock swagger makes them the perfect complement to this heavyweight bill. Together, these two bands promise an evening of unpredictable setlists, sweat‑soaked floors, and moments you’ll be talking about long after the last amp is powered down.
Tickets go on sale at 10 AM MT on Friday, May 16th. Don’t miss your chance to see the Melvins stop your whining and crank the volume at Fox Theatre. For tickets and more information, visit https://www.z2ent.com/events/detail/melvins-redd-kross-2025-fox.
