Attending a concert is the perfect way to spend time this November as the weather turns cold.
Whether you're entertaining family and friends as the holiday season approaches, or looking to see your favorite artist alone, there's a great list of musicians to choose from.
Here are our top suggestions for concerts to attend in metro Atlanta in November:
Sia’s reinvention landed her an audience that can support an arena tour. The “Chandelier” singer has taken drastic measures to keep the focus solely on her music since breaking into mainstream pop with “Titanium” so dancers such as Maddie Zeigler (‘Dance Moms’ and Sia’s “Chandelier” music video) will take center stage during this show.
R&B crooner Miguel and London EDM duo AlunaGeorge are opening up for Sia. Both acts have an established fan base, but this arena tour will no doubt gain them some new followers.
7 p.m. Nov. 1. $60-$175. Philips Arena, 1 Philips Drive, Atlanta. Philipsarena.com.
Stevie Nicks and the Pretenders are headed to Philips Arena in November as a part of the “24 Karat Gold” tour. The tour is in support of Nicks’ eighth solo album, which was released in 2014. A tour with Fleetwood Mac prevented her from promoting the album after its release.
7 p.m. Nov. 6. $59-$150. Philips Arena, 1 Philips Drive, Atlanta. Philipsarena.com.
Singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson has created a few noteworthy singles since her breakout hit “The Way I Am” was released a decade ago. She released her seventh studio album, “It Doesn’t Have To Make Sense,” earlier this year. Her current tour is named after the album’s lead single, a peppy breakup anthem titled “Hell No.”
8 p.m. Nov. 9. $29.50-$35.50. The Tabernacle, 152 Luckie St., Atlanta. Tabernacleatl.com.
Youthful fans looking to find a concert to attend this month since Troye Sivan’s show has already sold out should definitely check out Daughter. The English indie band not only has a song called “Youth,” too, their somber, introspective songs feature carefully crafted stories of navigating life and relationships much like Sivan’s. You won’t dance as much at this show, but you’ll certainly be glad you attended.
8 p.m. Nov. 10. $26 (in advance), $30 (day of show). Variety Playhouse, 1099 Euclid Ave., Atlanta. Variety-playhouse.com.
Much like Sia, pop music’s favorite identical twins Tegan and Sara reinvigorated their careers by delivering music for a more mainstream pop audience. The duo’s older fans can expect to hear throwbacks such as “Back in Your Head,” but the setlist will definitely feature newer singles such as “Closer” and “Boyfriend,” too.
8 p.m. Nov. 11. $36. The Tabernacle, 152 Luckie St., Atlanta. Tabernacleatl.com.
Singer and drummer Sheila E. will lead a small party at Center Stage Theater when she plays the venue on Nov. 12. Expect a tribute to Sheila E.’s frequent collaborator and friend Prince during the show.
9 p.m. Nov. 12. $34. Center Stage Theater, 1374 West Peachtree St., Atlanta. Centerstage-atlanta.com.
OVO artist PartyNextDoor has been working hard to solidify a place for himself in the pop music landscape, first with the Drake-assisted hit “Recognize” and then by co-writing Rihanna’s hit single “Work.” Expect to hear songs from his most recent album “PartyNextDoor 3” when he visits Atlanta in November.
Joining the Canadian singer is Jeremih, who has released R&B hits such as “Oui” and “Don’t Tell 'Em” in recent years.
In addition to touring together, the duo is preparing to release a joint album.
8 p.m. Nov. 14. $44. The Tabernacle, 152 Luckie St., Atlanta. Tabernacleatl.com.
Get into the holiday spirit with a concert from a capella group Straight No Chaser. Known for their viral “The 12 Days of Christmas” video, the group is likely to perform holiday classics, as well as new and old pop covers such as Charlie Puth’s “Marvin Gaye” when they perform at the Fox Theatre.
8 p.m. Nov. 19. $39.50-$59.50. Fox Theatre, 660 Peachtree St., Atlanta. Foxtheatre.org.
Unwind from spending the holiday with your family by attending an R&B concert the day after Thanksgiving. Both Maxwell and Mary J. Blige artists have amassed a substantial amount of hits since the ‘90s.
7 p.m. Nov. 25. $49.50-$225.00. Philips Arena, 1 Philips Dr., Atlanta. Philipsarena.com.
Straight No Chaser isn’t the only a capella group of YouTube fame that will visit Atlanta in November. Pentatonix, who recently released a Christmas album of their own, will perform a generous blend of original singles and covers during their show in Duluth.
8 p.m. Nov. 16. $29.50-$75. Infinite Energy Center, 6400 Sugarloaf Parkway, Duluth. Infiniteenergycenter.com.
