Memorial Day THUNDERFEST

Crank up the amps and kick off the holiday the loud way—Memorial Day THUNDERFEST is rolling into Austin with a full-on rock and metal barrage.

Bishop Studios is packing the night with a stacked lineup, bringing together bands that are all about big riffs, raw vocals, and high-voltage stage presence. If you like your Memorial Day with more guitar solos than fireworks, this is where you’ll want to be.

• STONEBREED – Sleaze-dusted hard rock with classic arena swagger, sing-along choruses, and the kind of riffs that make you instinctively throw the horns.
• TEXAS MICROPHONE MASSACRE – Industrial-tinged heaviness, pounding beats, and dark electronics colliding with metal attitude for a futuristic, cinematic crush.
• EDGE OF DESTINY – Modern metal with big melodies, dynamic vocals, and dramatic arrangements that swing from pummeling breakdowns to soaring hooks.
• REBEL ANGELS – Straight-ahead, high-energy rock built for crowded rooms, crunchy guitars, and choruses you’ll still have stuck in your head the next day.

With doors opening ahead of the 8:00 pm showtime, you’ll have time to grab a drink, snag a good spot, and warm up your neck for a serious night of headbanging. Expect loud guitars, sweat, shout-along moments, and a crowd that’s there for the love of heavy music.

It’s an all-ages show, so bring your concert crew—veteran metal fans, hard rock lifers, and anyone ready to discover their new favorite band. Memorial Day THUNDERFEST isn’t just another gig; it’s a holiday weekend blowout built for people who think the perfect way to honor a day off is under stage lights with the volume pinned to the red.

If you’ve been itching for a night of thunderous live music, this festival-style lineup is your excuse to circle the date, clear the evening, and let the amps shake the walls.
