We were extremely excited to finally catch Good June live at Moon Over Salem . Good June is a well oiled music machine that seems to find another gear performing live .
Good June ( Guitars/Vocals: Alex Ilyadis,Guitars: Walker Bristol,Bass: Justin Noé,Drums: Jina Moran) seem to be more than comfortable on stage . Frontman Alex Illyadis offered playful commentary. We especially like when he remarked “Wow They Clapped For Just Saying Our Name”
We thought they presented a lively and dynamic set of. We enjoyed every song and by the looks around the cinema we were not alone . They gave a brilliant and emotional performance of “It’s All About” We were also enthralled with their performance of “Silly Little Game”
We can’t wait to see Good June again live they are an extraordinary live band and we can’t wait to see what they do next .

The summer and fall months are the perfect time to head out and enjoy some live music . Soul Asylum will be hitting the road throughout the summer and fall. Look for them to bring their energetic live set to multiple festival stages, as well as the JubileeTour with Stone Temple Pilots and Live. Additionally, they will embark on The Slowly But Shirley Tour, a major city tour in the fall with support from The Juliana Hatfield Three, who are celebrating the 30th (ish) anniversary of their debut album “Become What You Are. The trio will play the album in its entirety along with other songs from their catalog.
With a career that spans three decades, the band’s indie success led them to enter the major-label mainstream with 1988’s Hang Time and its 1990 follow-up And the Horse They Rode In On, before achieving a commercial breakthrough with 1992’s triple-platinum Grave Dancers Union. Nearly a decade later, Soul Asylum returned in 2006 with The Silver Lining, followed by DelayedReaction in 2012, and Change of Fortune in 2016. Their 12th studio album, Hurry Up and Wait, was released in 2020 to both fan and critical acclaim, landing the band their highest Billboard chart position since 1995’s platinum-selling Let Your Dim Light Shine. The Born Free EP, also released in 2020, features acoustic versions of songs from Hurry Up and Wait.
Over the years, Soul Asylum fans have enjoyed several reissues of earlier releases, including 2022’s remastered and expanded Grave Dancers Union: 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition. Soul Asylum: The Complete Unplugged – NYC ‘93was released in 2023, featuring sixteen tracks, including four previously unreleased, non-broadcast songs from their MTV Unplugged set. Thought to be lost for over 20 years, master recordings of the band’s 1993 performance have been newly mixed from the original tapes for this release.
If live music is what you crave, Soul Asylum is an absolute can’t miss . Tickets and VIP packages available now at soul asylum.com
