Last night, Muse kicked off their highly anticipated North American headlining run, The Wow! Signal Tour, with a blistering opening-night performance at Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre in St. Louis, MO. Joined by special guests Bloc Party and The Temper Trap, the band delivered the kind of ambitious, larger than life production that has become synonymous with MUSE, complete with stunning visuals, intricate lighting, and towering lasers.
The career-spanning set showcased the band’s unmistakable live intensity, weaving together fan favorites including “Hysteria,” “Supermassive Black Hole,” and “Knights of Cydonia” with selections from their new album, The Wow! Signal. Highlights included “Hexagons,” “Nightshift Superstar,” “Be With You,” and “Cryogen,” giving North American audiences an early taste of the band’s latest material as MUSE launched the tour in spectacular fashion.
The tour supports the band’s tenth studio album, The Wow! Signal, which was released recently on June 26 via Warner Records. Listen HERE. The new album explores themes of extraterrestrial communication, technological anxiety, existential wonder, and humanity’s search for meaning in an increasingly disconnected world.
The Wow! Signal Tour continues tomorrow at Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville, IN before making stops in Tinley Park, Toronto, Atlanta, Austin, and more. The North American run concludes August 31 with a landmark performance at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. Bloc Party and Portugal. The Man will appear on select dates throughout the tour, with The Temper Trap joining all shows.
