Saxsquatch live in Grand Rapids

Experience Saxsquatch live on September 17th

Saxsquatch is scheduled to perform at The Intersection in Grand Rapids, Michigan on September 17, 2026. The band is known for its energetic blend of funk, jazz fusion, and improvisational rock, often incorporating extended instrumental jams and a prominent saxophone presence – a defining feature reflected in their name. Their sound draws comparisons to groups like Snarky Puppy and Lettuce, emphasizing complex arrangements alongside danceable grooves.

The Intersection has been a significant fixture in Grand Rapids’ music scene since its establishment in 1998. Originally conceived as an all-ages venue focused on alternative music, it quickly expanded to accommodate a diverse range of genres including rock, metal, electronic dance music, and hip-hop. The venue features multiple spaces: the main room with a large stage and standing capacity; Studio C, a smaller more intimate space; and The Loft which hosts DJ nights and smaller performances. It has hosted both nationally touring acts and local Michigan artists throughout its history, becoming known for its commitment to live music and fostering a vibrant community atmosphere. The building itself underwent substantial renovations in 2023 following a fire, ensuring continued operation as a key entertainment destination.
