STS9 will begin the festivities on Friday, September 8 by performing their highly regarded album Artifact live in its entirety for the first time ever since its 2005 release and they'll wrap the weekend with an acoustic Axe The Cables set during their full show on Sunday, September 10.

"We are so excited and truly honored to play Red Rocks to kick off the celebration of STS9's first 20 years," shares the band. "Red Rocks is a very special place to us and one of the most incredible stages on the planet. Every year leading up to RRX we take stock of where we are musically and the path we want to blaze going forward. This year, we wanted to give thanks and share the stage with some of the artists who have inspired us along the way. Thank you for the love and support; we've become quite a big family over the years :) Looking forward to the next 20!"
