Back in the "Region" for the final weekend of the Tour

Hey Hivers!!

What a weekend it has been—truly a “homecoming weekend” in every sense of the word! It’s hard to put into words just how special these past few days have felt, but we want to share a bit of the magic with all of you.

We kicked things off Friday night in Munster, Indiana, playing to a packed audience of friends and family. There’s nothing quite like debuting songs for the first time in front of people who have been part of your journey from the start. Some of these songs were written just a week ago, so there were a few nerves—but the warmth in the room quickly turned those into confidence. (We will share some of these musings with you soon as well, we promise)

That confidence carried us into Saturday, where we took the stage for a matinee performance in Chicago—the city of my birth. Returning to Martyrs’ for the fourth time, this venue has truly become a “home” for us on the North Side. The show started strong, and by the end, it transformed into a full-blown dance party. Looking out into the crowd, seeing so many smiling faces moving to our music, was a moment I’ll never forget. When we left the stage, we were drenched in sweat but absolutely glowing from the energy we shared with the audience and some of you dear patrons were at both shows which made them even more special!!

And now, here we are in Green Bay, Wisconsin, wrapping up this beautiful tour in a state that has always felt like a second home to me. Wisconsin has been a constant in my (Bennet's) life—filled with summer memories, holidays, and family gatherings. Over the years, it’s also become a place our band loves deeply. The energy, the people, the landscapes—it all feels like a warm embrace every time we return.

Tonight’s show is going to be absolutely packed, and I couldn’t imagine a better way to end this Homecoming Weekend. To everyone who came to these shows, danced with us, sang along, and shared these unforgettable moments—you’ve reminded me why we do what we do. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
