Canadians will be able to catch some of the hottest names in music on the big screen this fall.

The White Stripes, Radiohead and Beck are among the artists featured in a concert series that will run from Oct. 1 to Nov. 19 at participating Cineplex Entertainment theatres across the country.

“Watching the great line-up of bands and artists perform on the big screen in HD and digital surround sound will be an experience like no other,” Cineplex’s Pat Marshall said in a statement released Tuesday.

In total, the concert series will features 21 artists over five nights. The first three concerts in the series are dubbed “From The Basement” and showcase 17 different bands performing in a private setting without an audience.

The last two concerts, “inDef Sessions,” each feature two one-hour concerts from two different Canadian artists and bands: Great Lake Swimmers and Joel Plaskett Emergency on Nov. 5, and Alex Cuba and Royal Wood on Nov. 19.

Tickets for individual shows are priced at $10.95 plus tax for general admission. They can be purchased in advance on the Cineplex website and at participating theatre box offices starting Friday.

Concert ticket packages, bundled as any three shows or all five, must be purchased in person at participating theatres.
