Livingston at The Majestic
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.
