Featuring Aragon | Rock

Aragon brings the next generation of rock to the Alton riverfront. Made up of musicians ages 16-17, this four-piece band from the St. Louis area is known for shredding classic rock favorites from the 1970s through the mid-2000s with fresh energy and impressive musicianship. They’ve lit up local stages with powerful covers, thunderous rhythms, and soul-on-stage intensity, delivering high-energy performances that connect with audiences of all ages.

KSHE 95 calls them “the future of rock n roll.” A talented, high-energy teen rock band that performs a mix of classic rock and alt metal covers. They have quickly become one of the most sought-after cover bands in the Saint Louis region. They are a great fit for an audience of all ages. Check out their music: https://aragontheband.com/
