keshi at Moda Center

One of the world’s hottest R&B acts is marking a massive comeback with a new album and their biggest world tour yet. A crowd-favorite for his hard-hitting bangers “Limbo”, "Beside You", “Drunk”, and “2 Soon”, KESHI is back — getting us all hooked on his new single “Say”. As a teaser to his sophomore LP “REQUIEM” out this September, the man has fans all shaken up and stoked to witness his new era unfold. Taking the REQUIEM WORLD TOUR across North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia, you’re in for wild nights of his explosive R&B, hip hop, and lo-fi bangers.

Hitting the stage at Moda Center, the man will be joined by special guests Mac Ayres and Starfall. The huge and modern stadium is one of the hottest events and entertainment venues in the country, having hosted tons of games and all-out mega-star concerts. As Keshi sets foot on the big stage, get ready to hear tens of thousands of fans cheering and singing out loud as his gentle and soothing voice takes the night away.

“It's surreal in the sense that these are venues that people only dream about going to,” Keshi told USA TODAY as the thought of his biggest tour sinks in.

From intimate halls to jam-packed arenas, Keshi’s come a long way since his humble Soundcloud beginnings. An oncology nurse before his big break in music, his choices were “come home with no sense or will to live unless it was to fight, to get out and to make music,” he shared with USA TODAY. Inking a deal with Island Records in 2019, he never looked back. Now, we’ve been blessed by his incredible talent and melodic storytelling abilities, with tracks such as “Angel”, "Somebody", “Blue”, "Understand", “2 Soon”, and many more sending us to tears.

Talking about “REQUIEM”, Keshi shares how the record packs new influences that he took into heart. With a bunch of stories to tell, the man took a deep dive into genres and styles that he adores. Listening to a lot of Queen and The Beatles, you can expect hints of classic rock in the new album.

“I like so many different genres of music and so many different styles. I like being versatile,” Keshi told USA TODAY. “The precedent that I think 'Say' does set for the rest of the songs on the record, that you can expect, is that the quality is definitely more refined. There's a sheen to it.”

As Keshi kicks off a new era with “REQUIEM”, make sure to join the celebration by singing your heart out at his live shows. It’s definitely an experience you will never forget. A massive crowd singing every single word to his best songs. Mark your spots at the show by booking your tickets now!
