With the advent of new technologies, it seems as if anyone can call themselves a musician. Computers and other electronics enable everyone to sit down and compose a beat. But with that powerful tool came a flood of poseurs and wannabe musicians who lacked the creativity and patience to assemble serious, high quality music. The Knocks are at the frontlines of the resistance movement, the army of those who demand only the very best music birthed by only the very best musicians. The Knocks play the music you want to hear, not because it gets your dancing, not because it's the life of the party, not because it's hip and fun, although it is all of those things, but because it's forged by the hands of two guys who know what they're doing and love making good music, and that's a recipe for an incredible concert experience.

Based out of New York City's artistic haven, the Lower East Side, The Knocks are taking a stand against prefabricated and predictable music and reclaiming good music for all. The Knocks are Ben "B-Roc" Ruttner and James "Jpatt" Patterson, two musically inclined guys with a penchant for subverting the status quo and fomenting brilliant and breathtaking music. Their name harkens to the early days of their production career when they worked tirelessly out of their home studios and complaining neighbors would knock on their doors. Now it's fans that are knocking down the door, clamoring for a chance to see these fantastic DJs spin. Get your tickets at StubHub today!
Following the tried and true route of classic New York producers of the past, The Knocks, in their relentless effort to share their music and be discovered, would head straight from the studio to the club with their latest jam to test on the crowd in their DJ sets. And of course the crowd went wild. Coupled with DJing and making mixtapes, The Knocks scraped together enough money to open their own studio, HeavyRoc Music, and since then it's been a certified hit factory. From their days as tenement nuisances to up and coming DJs to superstardom, The Knocks have remained a pair of irreverent producers doing innovative things with music, and everyone is anxious to see what they'll come up with next!
Now that critics and audiences are hip to The Knocks, everyone is jonessing to get a piece of these gifted musicians, and their latest tour promises to be their best yet and blow everyone away. The Knocks have been taking their energetic live dance party all over the world, including their sold out NYC Bowery Ballroom debut, Tammany Hall headlining show and their European tour with Sleigh Bells and M.I.A. They've performed alongside acts such as Big Boi, Skrillex, Martin Solveig and Weezer, and now their upcoming U.S. tour has them sharing the stage with the thrilling Ellie Goulding.
Be prepared, because The Knocks will be knocking at your door and stereo very soon! They've come a long way since mixing beats in the apartments, and now that their incredible talents have been recognized, they're playing at sold-out shows all over the world. Their infectious beats elicit a dancing mania not seen at any other show, and that's a dance fever you'll want to catch. Head over to StubHub to get your dance music tickets to see The Knocks live!
