Big Shrimp brings its high-energy live show to Fort Collins on Sunday, January 11, at 8 p.m., performing at The Atrium at The Alley Cat.

Formed in 2024, Big Shrimp blends funk, jam, and progressive rock into an energetic sound that balances technical skill with an accessible, crowd-first feel. Members of the band have appeared at major festivals and shared stages with nationally recognized jam scene artists, while their songs have landed on Spotify’s “Modern Jam Band” editorial playlist.

The Fort Collins show is part of the band’s continued tour as they prepare new studio material and expand their national footprint. Advance tickets are available online, and fans are encouraged to buy early.
