The Pretty Reckless continues the successful new concert series presented by Wizard World with a concert at Brady Theater in Tulsa on Thursday, October 20. The event is in conjunction with and will kick off the third annual Wizard World Comic Con Tulsa, set for October 21-23 at the Cox Business Convention Center.

Between 2013 and 2015, The Pretty Reckless traveled the globe touring in support of their second album, the raucous, roaring, Catholic guilt-inspired Going To Hell. A bruising blend of ferocious rock and roll and inky blues, the album debuted in the Top 5 on the Billboard Top 200 and spun off three No. 1 Mainstream Rock singles, "Fucked Up World," "Follow Me Down" and 2014's most successful song at the format, "Heaven Knows," which spent a total of 18 weeks in the top spot. Going to Hell's success meant strong live demand for the New York City band, which is anchored by its songwriters, singer-guitarist Taylor Momsen and guitarist Ben Phillips, who have been making music together in partnership for ten years, and rounded out by bassist Mark Damon and drummer Jamie Perkins. The Going To Hell Tour sent The Pretty Reckless off on four separate jaunts across North America and three trips to Europe. Their explosive shows earned them legions of new fans at home and overseas.

The series is presented by Wizard World, producer of the largest pop culture convention series in North America, and features big headliners in well known music venues and taps into the vast and rabid fan-base of pop culture lovers who attend our events every month around the country.
