Experience the Sound of Joe Calabro

Get ready for a night where the soundtrack feels like your favourite road trip, festival field, and dive bar jukebox all rolled into one. From the swagger of Oasis and the anthems of The Killers, to indie gems from Sam Fender and Noah Kahan, Joe Calabro blends decades of hits into one high-energy show. Expect sing-alongs that hit you right in the nostalgia (Fleetwood Mac, CCR, The Verve), modern indie fire (Arctic Monkeys, Mumford & Sons, Catfish & The Bottlemen), and the kind of unexpected twists that keep the night alive (Outkast, Avicii, Erasure).

Music for everyone
Timeless Hits, Live Performance

With a setlist that swings from raw acoustic storytelling to big, electric festival anthems, Joe Calabro doesn’t just play songs — he creates moments. Whether you’re here for the classics, the indie deep cuts, or the bangers you can’t resist shouting along to, this is a gig that promises good vibes, big choruses, and memories you’ll carry long after the last note.
