On Tuesday, October 31st, 2023, Del Water Gap brought his I Miss You Already Tour to a sold-out Metro Chicago with opening act Kristiane. This tour follows the recent release of Del Water Gap's second album I Miss You Already + I Haven't Left Yet. Del Water Gap is the solo project of New York City-based songwriter S. Holden Jaffe.

Kristiane opened the show with a set full of soft folky pop songs and won over the crowd with a Lana Del Rey cover, followed by an unreleased song about getting older.

With an apron and chef hat on, as well as a pizza box in hand, Del Water Gap took the stage and drew the crowd in with energetic rock/pop songs and a presence to match. The audience sang along all night to songs like "All We Ever Do Is Talk" from the new album, as well as ones like "Sorry I Am" from self-titled and old favorites like "High Tops," from his first EP.

Although the night was bursting with energy and entertainment, Del Water Gap made space for more vulnerable moments. Towards the end of the set, DWG touched on his connection with fans over time and shared an anecdote about growing up with them. Throughout the night, DWG engaged with fans while on stage and even got into the crowd during his song "Perfume."

Del Water Gap's concert may have been sold out in Chicago and many other cities, but some tickets still remain at https://delwatergap.net/Tour
