Amon Amarth

Amon Amarth are a Swedish melodic death metal band from Tumba, formed in 1992. The band takes their name from the Sindarin name of Mount Doom, a volcano in J. R. R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth. Their lyrics are mostly themed around Viking mythology and history, and so they are sometimes labelled “Viking metal”, though they are musically melodic death metal, a term the band also prefers. Amon Amarth is composed of lead guitarist Olavi Mikkonen, vocalist Johan Hegg, bassist Ted Lundström, rhythm guitarist Johan Söderberg, and drummer Jocke Wallgren.

We♥KC-December 5-11, 2022- Upcoming Shows (Kansas City / Lawrence, KS)

JohnC@weheartmusic.com December 5, 2022

With the holiday season in full swing, this is likely the last busy live music week of the season (in terms of national touring bands), so find a show while you can. The weather is cooperating so far too, with temps swinging up from the 60s down to the 20s, but more constant cold and snow & ice will be more of a thing soon. Here’s what’s happening in the Kansas City metro December 5th-11th.
