Review and Gallery By: Militza Reyna

Florida native and alternative indie singer Aidan Bissett was the first one to take over the House of Blues stage, which also happened to be his first time playing in Dallas.

While singing “Out of My League” his newest single he accidentally sang the second verse twice because he mixed it up with the bridge but fans would not notice until he brought it up and laughed at his small mistake at the end of the song.

Other songs that Aidan played were “Wish It Was Me”, “Twenty Something” which got the crowd to cheer and sing along. 

The Crowd started clapping to the beat of the drums as Aidan sang the lyrics “am I crazy for tripping over your heart” 

While getting ready to sing his next song, Aidan noticed a fan wearing a pink Cowboy hat and asked for it. As he put it on he said “because when in Texas” right before he sang “I Can’t Be Your Friend” a song that he co-wrote with Coin.  He also included “More Than Friends” which made the crowd start dancing and singing along. 

As he ended his set he gave a shout out to Valley and thanked them for having him on tour. 

Right before exiting the stage, Aidan invited the crowd to meet him at the merch table after his set.

Next up to take center stage was Valley, which is made up of lead vocalist Rob Laska, guitarist Michael “Mickey” Brandolino, bassist Alex Dimauro, and drummer Karah James. 

The Canadian band opened the night up with “There’s Still A Light In The House”, other songs included “Good, But Not Together”, “A Phone Call in Amsterdam” “Lost In Translation” and “Have a Good Summer (Without Me)” these two songs are from their new album of the same that will be released on June 23rd.

Rob promised to be back in Dallas as he started to sing “Like 1999” the crowd started to sing and dance along with them. As they played “Paper Cup (Sorry for Myself)” Rob surprised the crowd by going into the dance floor. Valley sang “Hiccup” to bring the night to an end.
