About the event

Show contains adult topics.

Justin Furstenfeld, lead singer and creative visionary of Blue October, is renowned for being one of the most charismatic and uplifting artists of our time. Furstenfeld is known for his magnetic stage presence, an artist with an insanely pleasant voice that ranges from warm and melancholy one minute, to arm hair-raising melodies and tone, evoking deeply reflective and personal lyrics. He weaves stories that engage and endear him to thousands of loyal followers around the world. If you ask those who know you’ll hear words like ‘inspiring’, ‘genuine’, ‘a feeling’, a show I’ll never miss’.

A stage presence forged over thousands of performances, 12 studio albums, writing and producing 18 chart-topping singles, billions of streams, and two concert films. The powerful documentary Get Back Up is a brutal yet redemptive story that will leave you both gutted and joyous, ready to face any challenge. Available on all streaming platforms.

In March 2025, Justin will embark on a 30-city tour, performing his one-man show, ‘An Open Book’ (the second act). Audiences will laugh, sing, and cry, experiencing the comedy of life while embracing the mistakes we all learn from. Each performance becomes its own unique moment because every audience has its own sensibilities.

Furstenfeld will be releasing his second book, an expansive follow- up to his previous book, Crazy Making. Spanning over 300 pages, this as-yet-untitled book dives into the inspiration behind each song from albums like Sway, Home, I Hope You’re Happy, This Is What I Live For, and Spinning the Truth Around (Parts I and II).
