The act
Formed in 2009, out of Seattle, WA, The Head leaned on the catalog they built into a live act with national reach.
The Head and the Heart formed in 2009 out of open mic nights at Seattle's Conor Byrne pub in Ballard. The six-piece — Jonathan Russell, Charity Rose Thielen, Chris Zasche, Kenny Hensley, Tyler Williams, and Matt Gervais — built an indie-folk catalog across six studio albums on Sub Pop and Verve. Their sixth album, Aperture, arrived in May 2025.
The venue
The Jefferson Theater sits at 110 East Main Street, a 750-capacity historic 1912 theater operated by Starr Hill Presents under booker Danny Shea.
Jefferson programs eclectically across Americana, indie, country revival, hip-hop, and themed dance nights. The room held 750 for the The Head show, 100% sell-through.
The night
Doors 7:00 PM. Set 8:00 PM. All ages. Ticket prices are set on the on-sale.
The Brudi Brothers opens at doors with a 30-minute set.
Why now
The Head is currently routing 15th Anniversary Tour, and the corridor stop in Charlottesville sat between regional dates in the Mid-Atlantic.
The Head indexes 98/100 on local pull across the Charlottesville metro, with a non-trivial DC and Richmond overlap that often crosses for shows at this size.
In the books
The Head's next Jefferson date will be added to the calendar when announced.
The Jefferson Theater is at 110 East Main Street, Charlottesville, VA.
