A string quartet performs iconic Tool songs in a candlelit concert at the Granada Theater in Uptown.
Candlelight: Tribute to TOOL comes to the Granada Theater on Friday, November 6, with a string quartet performing Tool songs in a candlelit setting. It's a chamber music take on a band known for heavy, odd-metered rock, so the whole thing is stripped back to strings and candlelight rather than the full electric setup you'd expect from the original records.
Tool's music is built on long, winding compositions and shifting time signatures, and that's exactly what the quartet works with here. They take the band's songs and rearrange them for strings, so you'll hear those same melodies and rhythms played on violins and cello. The candlelight is part of the production, not just a detail, and it sets the mood for the room.
The Granada Theater is a boutique room in the heart of Uptown's music scene, and it's wheelchair accessible and ADA compliant. It hosts live music, micro-shows, album releases, and special performances, alongside dinner theater and chef events from its Uptown Lobby Bar and Restaurant, where lobby dining is available before the show. If you want to eat before you head in, the restaurant is right there in the lobby.
