This was the second show I've seen with RRN this year, and they continue to blow me away with their talent. I liked the set they played in Columbus better than the set in Nashville--they included two B sides and a Killers cover, then did an encore of "Growing Up" with Lighthouse and the Whaler. I will make a point of seeing RRN any time they are close to where I live and hope to hear them on the radio more and more.

Awesome band, awesome show!! I was finally able to see them play live and I loved it. They were truly wonderful. Very down to earth and engaged the crowd throughout the night. It was very nice that they played some of their older songs. And the last song, we all sang with them. I also loved the band that opened for them - The Lighthouse and the Whaler. First time to listen to their songs and I am a fan now.

Halfway through the show, it became obvious this wasn't your typical alt-rock band. While at the outset the guitars and drums had overpowered violinist Jennifer Rim, as the band settled down into "Foxbeard" she took over the melody as the band supplied the harmonies. Guitarist Daniel Chae said they weren't the Asian Mumford any more as they debuted "David Robinson," "Funeral Parade," and "Winter Wind." But it was on long jam that ended "Beetle" that everything came together -- the driving beat, the classical flourishes, and the intricate guitar work.

The first band, Andy Suzuki and The Method, were pretty good. I didn't care for the second band, The Lighthouse And The Whaler, they didn't seem to stand out to me but seemed to have a number of fans there. I have seen Run River North several times, as they have opened for the Goo Goo Dolls on NYE 2013 and the Goo Goo Dolls' spring Otis Midnight Sessions acoustic tour. They are truly amazing and I am such a fan of the musicality and energy that the band has.

I have been to quite my few share of concerts, ranging from concerts such as The XX to Josh Garrels. Without a doubt, however, this concert was my absolute favorite. Andy Suzuki and the Method, the Lighthouse and the Whaler, and Run River North were all unforgettable. It honestly felt like a personal concert just for me. The bands were so good live and knew how to be engaging. I was tired, hungry, and in quite a lot of physical pain; yet, I had the most amazing time. From Andy's vocals and humor, to the Lighthouse and the Whaler's sick mix, to RRN charisma and stage presence, it was amazing.

They were amazing and they put on SUCH a great show! They're music is on point and they're even better live. I've been to a lot of concerts including Mumford & Sons and Ben Howard and RRN was probably one of THE best concerts I have ever been to.

Run River North is an awesome band with a unique style and fresh sound. They are so very cool, yet humble. It would be worth it for anyone to go see them in person for an entertaining and enjoyable music experience.

I've never heard of Run River North before I saw them. They came with the Goo Goo Dolls to perform at my college. They sound amazing together and they have such a great stage presence. After the whole concert was over, they sat at their merch table and met with fans. They were all so sweet and kind.
