Conan Gray's The Comfort Crowd Tour had its third tour stop in Chicago on Friday, November 1st, 2019, to a sold out crowd at the House of Blues. LA-based R&B singer Umi opened the show with a colorful and soulful set that set the tone for Gray’s performance.

20-year-old Texas-native Youtuber and musician Conan Gray was welcomed to a crowd full of screaming teens that were chanting and dancing along to his dreamy pop set. Even though the venue was packed with screaming fans, Gray managed to make the performance feel intimate as he blazed through his popular tracks like “Generation Why,” “Comfort Crowd,” and “Crush Culture.”

Gray bounced all over the stage during his entire performance, matching the energy of the crowd. Whether he was wooing the crowd with dance moves that matched his music, or strumming along on his guitar, Gray knows how to captivate his audience and keep them wanting more. The Comfort Crowd Tour continues through North America until December 13th, 2019.
