The Midnight concert chronology |
The Fall 2023 North American Tour was the sixth concert tour by The Midnight.[1] Announced in April 2023, the tour began on September 16, 2023, in Atlanta, Georgia, and concluded on October 21, 2023, in Monterrey, Mexico. With the exception of the final two dates which took place in Mexico, all shows were in the United States.
The Fall 2023 North American Tour featured a diverse array of songs from across all of The Midnight's releases. The tour saw Tim McEwan return to the front of the stage playing synths and pads, having previously performed with a full drum kit since the Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 Tour. During the tour, the band played for the first time at the music festivals Music Midtown in Atlanta and Live Out in Monterrey. Additionally, they opened for ODESZA on their The Last Goodbye Tour on October 19, 2023, The Midnight's first time being a supporting act and their first performance in Mexico since 2019.
25 shows were performed over the span of six weeks, the longest individual run of shows for The Midnight since they began touring in 2018. The band's lineup, unchanged since the spring leg of the Fall 2021 and Spring 2022 Tour, consisted of Tim McEwan on percussion and synths, Tyler Lyle on guitar and vocals, Lelia Broussard on guitar and bass, Royce Whittaker on guitar, and Justin Klunk on saxophone.
Background
The tour was announced on April 11, 2023.[1] Presales began the following day, with sales open to general public on April 14. On May 16, the band was announced as part of the lineup for Music Midtown in Atlanta, with The Midnight's show taking place on September 16.[2] On June 20, Flamingosis was announced as the opening act for all shows and two additional dates in Nashville and Memphis were added.[3]
