Lights serenaded Chicago at the House of Blues for nearly two-hours to kick off her Skin & Earth Acoustic Tour. The usual standing room was filled with chairs which suited the relaxed tone of the stripped-down tour.
Lights alternated between acoustic and electric guitar throughout her set while sitting comfortably on a black bar stool. Playing a healthy variety of songs from the last decade, fans were treated to die-hard favorites including “Where the Fence is Low,” “February Air,” and “Banner.”
With it being the Skin & Earth Acoustic Tour, Lights played the entire album, which she self-produced and mixed, in full, including the brand new tracks “Tabs,” “Down Forever” and her recent single “Lost Girls,” a song many fans in the room were excited to hear live for the very first time.
Hitting major cities in North America all summer long, the 17-stop Skin & Earth Acoustic tour ends in Vancouver, BC on August 16th. You can grab your tickets for the tour here.
