The Killers

The Killers is an alternative rock band formed in the 2000s that is known for stadium rock anthems, including the hit single "Mr. Brightside." Fronted by Las Vegas-born lead singer Brandon Flowers for more than two decades, the group has headlined major music festivals worldwide.

Coverage of the group frequently highlights Flowers's individual creative endeavors alongside his work with the band. In 2026, Flowers released his third solo studio album, a country-inspired project titled Thrasher. He has also publicly reflected on his standalone repertoire, noting that he slightly regretted not saving his 2010 debut solo single "Crossfire" as an arena anthem for The Killers.

The band remains a prominent fixture on the live performance circuit. In September 2026, The Killers were locked in to headline the inaugural Ocean Way Festival on Santa Monica beach, though the event was canceled after severe shoreline erosion from offshore hurricane swells. During a concert in Salt Lake City that same month, Flowers brought his son Henry onstage for an acoustic duet cover of Oasis's "Don't Look Back in Anger."
