d4vd | Orlando
d4vd delivers an electric show to his Floridian fans. Texas native, d4vd, makes a triumphant return to the tour scene with his all-new Withered Tour at The House of Blues in Disney Springs, Orlando. On August 13th, 2025, rising star d4vd played the second of his two shows in Central Florida as part of his Withered Tour, and I must say, it was not anything short of amazing. By the time the doors opened, fans were excited to see their favorite artist. Fans packed the venue in blood-splattered shirts and bouquets of flowers that mirrored d4vd’s iconic attire featured in many of his music video releases.
When d4vd finally took the stage, the atmosphere changed in an instant. d4vd initially brings an electrifying energy to the crowd, zooming from end-to-end playing classics like “Take Me To The Sun” and new hits like “What Are You Waiting For” from the most recent WITHERED album. From there, the night took on a more somber tone. The stage was clad with decaying Roman-like architecture and flowers blooming out as if it were a form of death and rebirth.
The setlist mainly features older emotional tracks from d4vd’s discography, like “Sleep Well,” “WORTHLESS,” and “Backstreet Girl.” Yet seamlessly blends these with newer somber tracks like “Is This Really Love?”
Performing with the opener, Bryant Barnes, d4vd brings him back onto the stage to perform their collab originally by Barnes, “I’d Rather Pretend,” to the delight of fans of both artists.
In a triumphant finale, d4vd, in a soaring and piercing falsetto, sings the live version of arguably his most popular track so far, “Romantic Homicide.” d4vd is an artist whose voice resonates with those emotionally torn, making him one of the best rising artists of today’s age. He continues to leave his best on stage, and we can’t wait for what he has in store for us next.

G Jones | Orlando
On February 6th, I had the opportunity to go see and shoot for the up and coming bass artist G Jones along with his openers Tsuruda and Chee. They were playing at The Beacham in Orlando that night, which is an average sized venue. It has a capacity of about 1400, which I prefer this size in most cases because it’s big enough to fit plenty of people, and small enough and more intimate to where you can easily get up close to the artist (when I’m not already in the photo pit).
I’m not a longtime listener of bass music, but checked out his latest album The Ineffable Truth as soon as I heard that I’d be able to shoot for him and wanted to identify those songs live. I really vibed with his song “Different Sound”, which stood out as one of the more hyped and wild songs with really interesting bass tones and dynamics. The crowd was raging basically nonstop the entire song. That or “Time” would be my favorite. “Time” was a much longer song of the dubstep genre, just over six minutes, but in my opinion had the most soulful aesthetic due to its wider range of pace, going from a hype jazz styled drum like intro, to a slowed down series or organ like tones building it back up into a somewhat darker, more intense version of the intro. The rest of the set was consistently exciting and kept the audience from standing still.
These shows live are obviously going to be much better when listening to this genre, since it’s the heaviest you can really feel bass and his light show was insanely cool, very accurately lining up with the energy of the music. Any fan of bass music or dubstep would have an awesome time at one of his shows. The tour is only a few days in and ends early March (aside from one in April). See if G Jones is playing near you at: gjonesbass.com/shows.
