311 - Fiddlers Green 2026

311 brought its unmistakable combination of alternative rock, reggae, funk and rap-rock to Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre in Colorado in 2026, joining Sublime and Slightly Stoopid for a summer lineup that felt tailor-made for longtime fans of the alternative-reggae scene.

The band's set was packed with songs that have made 311 such a durable live act. “Down,” “All Mixed Up,” “Amber,” “Beautiful Disaster,” “Come Original,” “Love Song” and “You Wouldn't Believe” gave the crowd plenty of familiar material, while the band's musicianship allowed the songs to stretch beyond their studio versions.

Nick Hexum and SA Martinez remain one of the group's biggest strengths. Their contrasting vocal styles have always helped give 311 its distinctive sound, moving effortlessly between melodic singing, rhythmic delivery and heavier rock sections. Chad Sexton’s drumming and the band's tight rhythm section kept everything locked into the groove.

The outdoor Fiddler’s Green setting was a perfect match for 311. The crowd came ready to dance, sing and enjoy the relaxed summer atmosphere, while the combination of 311, Slightly Stoopid and Sublime created an entire evening around the musical styles that helped define alternative rock in the 1990s and beyond.

“Down” was an obvious highlight, instantly turning the audience into one giant sing-along, while “Amber” provided one of the night's smoother moments. The contrast between the band's harder-edged songs and its laid-back material kept the set moving without ever losing its energy.

311's Fiddler’s Green performance ultimately proved why the band remains such a dependable live attraction. More than three decades into its career, the group still has the songs, musicianship and chemistry to make an outdoor amphitheater feel like one enormous party.
