The 3,000-square-foot venue at 24th Street and Indian School resides in the onetime home of landmark Valley club Mason Jar, a notorious rock ‘n’ roll stronghold. And while Rebel Lounge may share some similarities with its legendary predecessor (including a steady mix of local talent and national acts taking the stage almost every night), it's long since stepped out of The Jar’s shadow.
Since being opened by Arizona concert promoter Stephen Chilton a decade ago, the venue has carved out its own lane. Indie rock is a large focus, but its soundscape is varied. Hip-hop, electronica, funk, shoegaze and goth all find space beneath Rebel’s lights. Dance nights also occur on the regular. And the occasional sideshow or burlesque keeps things interesting.
For proof, look no further than its packed calendar. This year alone, Rebel has hosted Hibou, Save Ferris, Frankie and the Witch Fingers, Madilyn Mei and Ray Bull. The rest of the year is just as eclectic and includes indie icons Shonen Knife, alt-country troubadour The White Buffalo, punk revivalists SWMRS, darkwave favorite IAMX and gypsy-folk vagabonds DeVotchKa. Here’s a look at every upcoming concert at The Rebel Lounge in 2025.
The 50-foot-long Arizona mural on The Rebel Lounge's eastern exterior wall was created in the summer of 2019 by Tucson muralist Joe Pagac and seven other local artists.
