Michigan

Marking the 20th anniversary of their seminal debut Chroma, Cartel took Detroit back to 2005 with a front-to-back play through that had fans hanging on every note.

On September 12, 2025, Quinn XCII turned the Michigan Lottery Amphitheater into a hometown celebration, with a crowd that felt less like strangers and more like family invited to the biggest backyard party in Sterling Heights.

Fans of all ages buzzed with anticipation, knowing they were about to see Yungblud in the flesh. The energy was palpable, a steady hum running through the room. When the crew moved a lone mic stand to the center of the stage, the roar made it clear: Detroit was ready for their favorite artist to arrive.

Detroit got a full dose of dream-pop intensity when Phantogram brought their tour to The Fillmore on Sunday night. The ornate theater became a swirling storm of bass, synths, and flashing lights, and by the end of the night, it felt less like a concert and more like being pulled into the band’s own universe.

Livingston opened up about everything from navigating grief and identity to the wildest moments on tour—and let’s just say, you’re going to want to watch this one all the way through. Check out our exclusive video interview below, and keep scrolling for the full conversation.

For me, this wasn’t just another show; it was the culmination of following two artists whose music found me at the right time. I’ve been listening to both Livingston and Braden Bales since 2023, originally discovering them through TikTok. But Livingston’s latest release, A Hometown Odyssey: The Story Continues, transformed me from a casual listener into a full-blown fan. As of this moment, he’s my most-played artist of 2025. After this show, that’s not changing anytime soon.

For over a decade, Former Critics have been quietly building a reputation as one of Detroit’s most consistent—and criminally underrated—rock acts. What began as a humble acoustic project between high school friends has evolved into a full-fledged band with a sharpened edge, a loyal local following, and a sound that refuses to play it safe.

On a wet and slightly dreary Tuesday night in Detroit, Half•Alive offered an antidote to the gloom, delivering an immersive audiovisual experience that blurred the lines between concert and performance art.
