# Event Details

- **Event Name**: 10,000 MANIACS | The Celestia Theater
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 19 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: One of the most influential bands to emerge from the alternative-rock scene, 10,000 Maniacs have captivated audiences for over four decades with their poetic lyrics, lush melodies, and unforgettable live performances. Since forming in Jamestown, NY, in 1981, the group has evolved from indie trailblazers to platinum-selling pioneers, selling more than 10 million records worldwide and helping shape the sound of alternative rock.
 
The band broke through with 1987’s In My Tribe, which stayed on the charts for 77 weeks and produced the classics “Like the Weather” and “What’s the Matter Here?”. They followed with platinum albums Blind Man’s Zoo and Our Time in Eden, featuring fan favorites “Trouble Me,” “Candy Everybody Wants,” and “These Are Days.” Their MTV Unplugged performance, including the hit “Because the Night,” sold over four million copies and remains a landmark moment in ‘90s music.
 
Led today by the powerful voice and viola of Mary Ramsey alongside founding members Jerome Augustyniak (drums), John Lombardo (guitar), Dennis Drew (keyboards), and Steven Gustafson (bass), the Maniacs continue to bring their rich songbook to life onstage with passion and authenticity. Guitarist Ben Medina rounds out the lineup, adding fresh energy to their signature sound.
 
In 2026, the band celebrates its 45th anniversary with an active touring schedule, and the box set Candy Everybody Wants—highlighting the band’s groundbreaking Elektra years of the '80s and '90s. The band will cap off their anniversary year with the release of their first album of new material in 12 years, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter of creative rebirth.
 
For fans old and new, a 10,000 Maniacs concert is more than nostalgia; it’s a living, breathing celebration of music that has touched generations. From the anthems you know by heart to the new songs carrying their legacy forward, this is a chance to experience one of America’s most enduring and inspiring bands live.
