King Gizzard and The Wizard Lizard brought their unique psychedelic rock to Franklin Music Hall on October 22nd. The venue packed the two floors that evening for the concert, and the fans were eager to see the group perform following several postponements as far back as 2020. Their tour kicked off in September following the announcement of their latest album, Changes. It had been selling out several cities across North America before finally arriving at Franklin Music Hall.
Melbourne-based folk singer/songwriter Leah Senior opened the show with her soft and catchy tunes that had everyone in attendance captivated from beginning to end. Her performance featured tracks from her 2020 release, The Passing Scene, which included songs such as “Time Traveler,” “Daisy,” and “Where Am I.” Senior’s opening performance was the perfect precursor to their set and definitely got the crowd warmed up.
At half past nine, King Gizz took the stage and delivered a blistering set that had the crowd rocking all night long. The enthusiasm from the fans was tremendous as they played original favorites such as “O.N.E.” to newer songs like “Iron Lung.” They played the gauntlet of their songs that evening. The stage design was stunning, a heat map bases visuals flooded screens behind the band, flowing to the beat of their riffs.
King Gizz at Franklin Music Hall was a fantastic concert. We highly recommend seeing them and Leah Senior if they come to your town, as tickets are still on sale for this tour. The band’s album Changes was released on October 28th.
