On Friday, October 10, 2025, pop icon Jesse McCartney took the stage by storm at the Louisville Palace. It’s not every day that an artist from the early 2000s walks on stage and immediately reminds a crowd exactly why they fell in love with him in the first place. But Jesse McCartney’s ‘Weightless Tour’ does just that, leaving everyone with lots of nostalgic memories. The night was a seamless blend of both old hits, including crowd favorites such as “Beautiful Soul”, “How Do You Sleep”, and “Leavin”, as well as newer songs from his Weightless EP.
McCartney, now a seasoned performer, brought warmth, lots of charisma, and vocal precision to every single song while managing to balance his boy-band-era charm with a more reflective stage presence. With a diverse crowd of longtime fans and younger, newer listeners, it was no secret that Jesse’s legacy has only gotten better with age. In between songs, Jesse spoke candidly about fatherhood, change, and letting go—offering some heartfelt context to the thematic arc. He also took the time to bring a lucky fan on stage to serenade during “Party For Two”.
This show proved to be a joyful walk down memory lane, leaving fans happy and lighthearted, but also a reminder that Jesse McCartney is here to stay for the long run.

If there’s anything you can expect from an Ian concert, it’s an energy-packed, high-volume, unforgettable experience. The 19-year-old rapper from St. Louis, MO took the stage at Mercury Ballroom in Louisville, KY and from the moment the music began, the crowd was locked in - ready to go, and Ian didn’t let up whatsoever.
Performing some crowd favorites such as 3.5, AirBnb, Hate Me, and Magic Johnson, Ian’s commanding stage presence, paired with impeccable delivery, had the audience roaring with every lyric nonstop. The connection between Ian and his fans was undeniable, which created an electric atmosphere throughout the venue and served as one of the loudest crowds I’ve heard in a while.
A memorable moment during the show included his producer Lucas on the piano, followed by Ian doing a quick transition into his song ‘3.5’. Although there were no openers for this show, Ian easily proved that his performance alone was enough to carry the entire night. With tonight’s show being Ian’s very first time in Kentucky, he was more than impressed by the energy the crowd gave him and I’m sure it won’t be too long before he returns to Louisville.
Ian’s love for his fans did not go unnoticed as he held a meet and greet before the show started, and came outside to meet fans waiting over an hour in the cold temperatures. There was never a moment where he didn’t express gratitude for all of the support, which made the night feel more personal. Overall, Ian’s concert was an experience that shouldn’t be missed. With his passion, talent, and infectious energy, it’s clear that he’s not going anywhere for a long time and I’m excited to see where his journey takes him.

The first inaugural Gazebo Festival kicked off its 2-Day music event this past weekend at Waterfront Park in Louisville, KY, and had the entire city buzzing with excitement. Curated by GRAMMY-nominated rapper and Louisville native Jack Harlow, the festival included a special and unique lineup of music that Harlow stated feels like a chance to express his personal music taste. The month of May is usually very exciting for the city of Louisville with events such as the Kentucky Derby and Forecastle. However, with Forecastle taking a hiatus in 2023, the city was left with a feeling of emptiness and decided the Gazebo Festival would be the perfect solution to bring all of the liveliness back to Louisville on Memorial Day Weekend.
The gates were opened on Day One and fans entered Waterfront Park with excitement built up over the last couple of months. Acts such as Vince Staples, Rich Homie Quan, Larry June, Karrahboo, as well as Louisville natives SHY!!, and Dom Haley graced the stage preparing fans for an electrifying closing set by SZA. After an exhilarating day with good vibes across the park, it was safe to say that the Gazebo Festival would be a staple for the city of Louisville.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned for Day Two as Louisville was met with hazardous weather conditions and winds as high as 80 mph which left a bit of damage to the site at Waterfront Park. Fans were left with disappointment as acts such as PinkPanthress, James Savage, Omar Apollo, and a highly anticipated closing set from Jack Harlow did not take place. In response to the cancellation, Gazebo Festival will be sending out full refunds to all Sunday ticket holders and 50% refunds to all 2-day ticket holders.
Despite the unfortunate circumstances taking place on Sunday, May 26th, Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg was very impressed with Harlow’s efforts. “Jack Harlow is an extraordinary Louisvillian who continues to give back to his hometown.”, says Greenberg. Harlow also states that there are many full-circle aspects to the festival and some of those aspects include a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales as well as on-site revenue streams going to different organizations in Louisville through the Jack Harlow Foundation which was established in 2023.
With Gazebo Festival highlighting Louisville’s underground music scene, there is no doubt that the festival shined a light over the entire city and left a vibrant aura that will have fans and Louisville natives waiting for Gazebo Festival to return for years to come.

Offset brought his A-game on Saturday night when he performed in front of a sold-out crowd at Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom for his “Set It Off” Tour. The show featured energetic performances from Offset and both male and female backup dancers, lots of strobe lights, and an elaborate stage set up with a long white staircase. The vibes were high the entire night with emotions you could feel from the back of the venue.
In addition to performing hits from his new album, Offset also had the crowd going wild to some of his classics with Migos such as “Bad and Boujee”, a fan favorite collab he did with Metro Boomin called “Ric Flair Drip”, and a dedication to his fellow Migos member Takeoff who sadly passed away in 2022. Adding on to the excitement, Offset also had a surprise guest appearance by G Herbo.
Overall, the “Set It Off” tour seems to be solidifying Offset’s status as a top-tier performer in the hip-hop world. Anyone who attends a show on this tour can definitely expect to leave an even bigger fan of him than they were before.
