Pop Up Rebellion

When you book Pop Up Rebellion, you are securing a high-caliber entertainment experience designed to be the highlight of your event’s programming. We specialize in transforming professional gatherings into vibrant, high-energy celebrations through the power of millennial nostalgia.

For the Audience: A Tier-One Performance
The Ultimate Nostalgia Trip: A high-fidelity journey through the greatest alternative and pop-punk hits of the 90s, 00s, and 10s. We play the songs your guests actually know by heart.

Interactive Engagement: Our performance is built on crowd participation. We excel at breaking the ice, getting guests on their feet, and creating "shared moments" that people will talk about at the office on Monday.

Concert-Quality Energy: We bring the stage presence of a national touring act—dynamic, visual, and engaging—scaled perfectly to fit your venue and audience size.

For the Client & Planner: Seamless Integration
Corporate-Grade Professionalism: We prioritize clear communication, punctuality, and a "low-maintenance" footprint. We understand the nuances of event timelines and work in lockstep with your coordinators.

Controlled Environment: Using modern digital sound technology, we provide a full-band "stadium sound" at a volume that is appropriate for your specific venue. Whether it’s a high-energy dance floor or an upbeat cocktail hour, we mix for the room.

Fully Self-Contained Production: We eliminate the need for third-party rentals by providing a professional PA system, wireless microphones for clear audio, and a basic stage lighting package.

Brand-Safe Entertainment: While our music is high-energy, our stage banter and presence are always professional and appropriate for a corporate or family-friendly environment.

Pop Up Rebellion is a premier event entertainment group based in Tucson, Arizona, dedicated to recreating the high-energy soundscapes of the 1990s and 2000s. Composed of veteran musicians with decades of collective experience in the industry, the band specializes in delivering polished, high-fidelity performances of pop-punk, alternative, and ska anthems.

Our approach is built on the pillars of professionalism and reliability. We understand that a successful corporate event requires more than just great music; it requires a partner who respects timelines, venue requirements, and the specific atmosphere of your brand. Whether we are performing at a large-scale festival, a grand opening, or a private corporate gala, our goal is to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for event planners and an unforgettable "nostalgia trip" for guests.

Beyond the stage, our members bring a background of military service and corporate leadership to the table, ensuring that our business operations are as disciplined as our rehearsals. We provide a turnkey production package, including professional-grade sound and lighting, and we are fully insured to meet the rigorous standards of luxury venues and corporate campuses.

Pop Up Rebellion doesn't just play a setlist; we curate an experience that bridges the gap between raw rock energy and sophisticated event production.

Pop Up Rebellion is a fully self-contained musical act. We provide a "turnkey" solution, meaning we bring the gear, the sound, and the lighting necessary to turn any space into a professional concert stage. We are also fully prepared to interface with on-site AV teams for larger ballroom or outdoor festival setups.

Power Requirements
Dedicated Circuits: We require a minimum of two (2) dedicated 20-amp, 120V circuits within 50 feet of the performance area.

Safety: All our cabling is high-grade and will be safely taped down or covered with cable ramps (provided by us) to eliminate trip hazards in high-traffic areas.

Space & Staging
Footprint: A minimum performance area of 12’ deep x 16’ wide is ideal for our four-piece setup.

Surfaces: We can perform on raised stages or flat floor surfaces. For outdoor events, the performance area must be level, dry, and protected from direct sunlight or precipitation to ensure equipment safety.

Audio & Volume Management
Sound System: We provide a professional-grade PA system (QSC/Electro-Voice) suitable for crowds up to 300 people.

Volume Control: We utilize In-Ear Monitors (IEMs) and digital modeling technology. This allows us to keep "stage volume" extremely low, giving the front-of-house engineer (or our own digital mixer) total control over the room's volume. We can deliver a high-energy "rock" feel at a decibel level that still allows for networking and conversation.

Microphones: We can provide a wireless microphone for your event host’s announcements or keynote introductions upon request.

Load-In & Strike
Access: We require access to the performance area 90 minutes prior to the event start for load-in and soundcheck.

Strike: Equipment removal takes approximately 45–60 minutes following the conclusion of the performance.
