FINNEAS kicked off his highly anticipated 'CRYING OUT LOUD' North American Tour with a sold-out performance in Music City. From start to finish, the evening was an immersive experience, blending heartfelt storytelling, masterful musicianship, and a few surprises along the way.


Kicking off the night was indie-rock Bad Suns, who delivered a fiery ten-song set that had the crowd on their feet from the start. Their infectious energy set the perfect tone for the evening, with standout performances of fan-favorite hits like *Daft Pretty Boys*, *Life Was Easier When I Only Cared About Me*, and their breakthrough single, *Cardiac Arrest*. The band’s dynamic stage presence and anthemic sound ensured that the audience was fully engaged, eagerly anticipating what was to come.


As the lights dimmed and the opening notes of Star****** rang through the iconic venue, a wave of anticipation swept through the crowd. From that moment on, FINNEAS took fans on a 90-minute journey, performing 20 songs that showcased his signature blend of introspective lyricism, rich melodies, and raw emotion.


The setlist spanned his career, offering everything from fan favorites like *The Kids Are All Dying* and *Let’s Fall in Love for the Night* to deeper cuts such as *Cleats* and *Sweet Cherries*. The night wasn’t just about the music; FINNEAS took time to engage with the audience, seamlessly blending brief conversations with his performances. His charisma and authenticity made the night feel personal.


Towards the end of the night, the crowd erupted in cheers. FINNEAS welcomed Nashville’s own Hayley Williams to the stage for a rendition of Paramore’s *crushcrushcrush*. The surprise collaboration was an unforgettable moment, as Williams’ commanding vocals blended effortlessly with FINNEAS’ performance.


FINNEAS left the audience in awe, proving once again why he is one of the most compelling artists of this generation. His ability to craft an experience that is both deeply personal and universally resonant is a testament to his artistry.


As the 'CRYING OUT LOUD' Tour kicks off, fans across North America are in for an unforgettable ride.
