COIN - cancelled

The experience of seeing COIN, an electro-rock quartet out of Nashville, is like a shot of B12 for the soul and body, with one guarantee: You will dance like a maniac. On stage, the energy is frenetic, and the dance party is contagious. Comprised of lead vocalist Chase Lawrence, drummer Ryan Winnen and lead guitarist Joe Memmel, the band's New Wave-indebted pop has more in common with Passion Pit and Foster the People than the country-twang of their Nashville peers. Chase Lawrence, with long curly locks, works the crowd with a swagger reminiscent of Michael Hutchence, while the rhythm section keeps a tight, synth-laden groove. In 2016, breakout single "Talk Too Much" became the band's live centerpiece, winning over crowds across the country. During their fabled showcase at LA's historic Troubadour in 2017, as well as stops at Old National Centre (Indianapolis) and The Fillmore (Detroit), COIN whipped fans into a frenzy, getting even the most mellow hipsters on the dance floor.
