Fresh off the buzzworthy "Radioactive" performance with Kendrick Lamar at the Grammys, Imagine Dragons made a tour stop in Austin on February 20. The Las Vegas-based rockers wowed an enthusiastic crowd with a power-packed performance at the Frank Erwin Center.
Playing in support of the first full-length album, Night Visions, the identically named tour then made its way to Dallas before heading to Nashville, Tennessee. Austinites that didn't catch the band's Frank Erwin Center performance have another chance to see Imagine Dragons in Austin this spring.
It was announced last week that Imagine Dragons will join the likes of Coldplay, Pitbull and Keith Urban at the iTunes Festival, which will take place during SXSW in March.
