Why see Leon Bridges?

Leon Bridges Embarks On Tour!

The young Texan is going on tour! The gospel and soul singer harks back to an older time, with a strong emphasis on 1960s rhythm and blues. Bridges has gained national press attention, with The Wall Street Journal describing him as a "throwback to '60s-soul a la Otis Redding and Sam Cooke". He also makes a point of performing in vintage clothing from the era, making his act a uniquely nostalgic experience!

In a story that is stranger than fiction, Bridge's break into the music industry came about after a chance meeting with rock group White Denim's guitarist Austin Jenkins in a bar; Jenkins and fellow bandmate Joshua Block would go onto produce his first critically acclaimed single, "Coming Home".

Leon Bridges/Anthem/DC/8-11-2022

Came to this show with not a lot of introduction; it was a birthday gift for my daughter, who adores him. I like everything so game for whatever. All I really heard previous was Smooth Sailing, which is a fantastic, sleek and jazzy tune. This guy just seems like the real thing. The show was fantastic, the venue was perfect. He wasn't a presumptuous STAR but rather a natural talent who seemed to shy away from the limelight but knew he had a job to do and did it well- a throwback to all kinds of things- I saw and heard the influences of Aaron Neville, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke and Miles Davis all rolled into one dynamic yet clunky and sweet performer who was true and beautiful all at once. We had a great time. This guy has miles to go and happy to have been near him. ... Read more

Loud Band Muffled Singer

Third time seeing Leon Bridges in Philly...can see how much he has matured and become less shy on stage...think i like the first album's tour better where the music was an accompaniment to his singing...this time it was more like he was assisting the band...the acoustics were not great although the house was packed for a second night and folks seemed to enjoy themselves....Leon is gifted so i was happy to see him....the venue charged an additional $40 to stand where we stood for free the last time we saw him...that was corny... ...
