Following a run of 18 sold-out shows across North America last month, rising star Mk.gee announces his world tour. The expansive new run will see him traveling across North America again to perform in new cities and returning to play exponentially bigger venues in cities he reached on his spring tour. In addition to his North American dates, Mk.gee will be traveling to Europe and the UK, capitalizing on the momentum from his venue upgrades in London earlier this year, which also saw sold-out success. Mk.gee will be completing the tour down under for three dates throughout Australia.
Last night, to tease the impending tour announcement, Mk.gee shared a live visual of his performance of “Breakthespell” from one of his two sold-out shows at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles. The video captures the raw and enchanting energy of his live performance, earning high praise from Billboard, which described it as “a must-see for concert lovers.” Mk.gee’s performances with bandmates Andrew Aged and Zach Sekoff have been widely praised for their captivating presence, embodying the beguiling nature of the songs from his critically acclaimed debut album, Two Star & The Dream Police. Mk.gee’s alchemy of guitar sounds has been the centerpiece of his live shows, showcased on standout tracks that have become fan favorites such as “Candy,” “Are You Looking Up,” and “Alesis.”
Two Star & The Dream Police has captivated the musical world, drawing praise from fans and fellow artists alike, including Eric Clapton, who said in a recent interview, “he has found things to do on the guitar that are like nobody else.” The album received widespread acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, and Vulture, who listed the album in their Best Albums Of 2024 (So Far) list, as well as being the subject of fervent fascination on guitar and music message boards online. Following Two Star’s release, Mk.gee ignited more widespread admiration making his late-night television debut with a standout performance of “Are You Looking Up” on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
