Rockstar Newswire

Especially for all Rockstar fans who've been turned on to new (or classic) artists in the soundtracks to our games throughout the years, and who'd love to get the word on when some of these acts are hitting your local stages, we present the Rockstar Soundtrack Alumni concert calendar -  a selection of notable artists who've appeared in our games and where you can catch them locally over the coming month.

With plenty of summer festival action still in high season, here's a lineup of gigs from artists you've heard in Max Payne 3 (HEALTH, Garland Jeffreys, Gary Clark Jr., Trouble & Bass, Drop the Lime), L.A. Noire (The Real Tuesday Weld), Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (Ticklah), and Bully (Shawn Lee). Of course this calendar is by no means complete, so if you're aware of other shows from other Rockstar soundtrack artists, or if you've caught a show recently yourself, or if there's a particular soundtrack artist you'd like more info on - do shout it out on in comments to share. Also feel free to send us pics if you happen to attend any of these shows and we may feature them in an upcoming post.
