Leon Bridges Reviews

Jack from Chicago, Illinois

MUFFLED VOCALS—NOT MANY UPTEMPO SONGS

Very underwhelming and not much energy. Leon didn’t dance much and his vocals were muddy. Let waiting for the show to pick up and then it was over. Love Leon’s records and previous show I’ve seen but this was just kind of boring unfortunately.

TERRIBLE SOUND

Like others have said, sound was bad and ruined the show. Sound for the opener was good so not the sound engineer, but rather sound choices by the band. Muddy/fuzzy, vocals drowned out, overly loud.

UNDERWHELMING

Saw Leon at The Hard Rock in Atlantic City last night. Just a boring show overall. Sound was off. Not a very engaging performance. Leon seemed disinterested to be there. I'll continue to listen to his music.....in the car! Not live...

BJCC ALL WRONG

I love concerts and live music. In almost any form they are entertaining, worthwhile, and enjoyable. The April performance with Leon Bridges in Birmingham, AL, at the BJCC was none of those things. When the sound allowed, his voice and talent were truly amazing, but 99% of the night's performance was drowned out by high volume, disorganized and muffled sounds. His words were indistinct and indiscernible. The audio experience was terrible. This was in no way due to the artist, performers, back-up singers, but more the acoustics in the venue itself. Our tickets were great! Orchestra Row J seat 101 and the one beside it. Distance to the stage wasn't a problem. 45 minutes into the performance, we left. SO SAD-- Leon Bridges is great/talented/amazing/inspiring and the whole deal was ruined by loud, disorganized sounds coming from difference directions. We requested a refund from Ticketmaster that was declined, only furthering the disappointment of the experience and the night. Avoid BJCC

DISAPPOINTED AND LEFT EARLY

Saw Leon at Mission Ballroom in Denver 10/4/2021. The opening act Abraham Alexander was much better than Leon Bridges. The band was so loud your heart vibrated and you could not hear a word he was singing. On one song there was a piano solo that sounded like an unsupervised toddler just banging on the keys. Went with my 21 yr old daughter and even turned to me and said WTF is this? The backup band was trying to sound like some 70s funk and failed miserably. We left way early, along with a lot of other people. When they played Beyond you could barely recognize it and you couldn’t hear the words. After that we gave up. It was horrible. What a waste. Haven’t walked out on a concert EVER. Wish I never went to this one.

WORST CONCERT EVER!

I've never walked out of a concert in 35 years! Love all music from classical to rap. Acoustics in Altria Theater were horrible. But Bridges crew should have adjusted sound to stop band from completely drowning out Leon. Really can't believe they didn't fix this after the show started. Could not hear him at all when speaking or even when singing. It was completely garbled and all band. His voice sounded terrible. Even backup singers were lame. He didn't hit any of the notes in "Beyond." Didn't even sound like the same song or person. Worst show ever. I will never pay to see a band at this venue again. Save your money from Leon Bridges AND Altria Theater.

AGREE, FIRE THE SOUND ENGINEER.

Disappointed in this concert, so loud, could not appreciate the work of Mr. Bridges over the bass. Poor energy, seemed less than interested in preforming. Audience encouraged to stand at start of concert as Mr. Bridges walked out. They remained standing 3 songs in. Went to house manager to be moved to another seat as I would not be standing for this concert. Got front row balcony, great seats. No improvement in sound though. Stayed 2 more songs and gave up. Hats off to the house manager for accommodating the issue of standing concert goers.
