BLEACHERS FOREVER!
Toronto, Ontario - June 9, 2026
Pushing in close to the front of Toronto’s RBC Amphitheatre, Bleachers fans crowded in towards the stage late Tuesday night buzzing with energy. In a crowd decorated with a variety of Bleachers merch from old tours and the current run alike, Bleachers has curated a special audience, the appreciation for the music and the band palpable throughout the venue.
The night opened with Momo Boyd, the Detroit born singer songwriter who has become known for her soul influence and the breadth of her storytelling. As the curtain in the middle of the stage was pulled back in between sets, the full expanse of the stage was revealed, featuring a litany of instruments filling the space from edge to edge, including no less than at least 3 pianos and 2 drum kits to begin.
Walking out to “My Way” by Frank Sinatra, the band was met by an overwhelming chorus of cheers as each member stepped up to their starting position before launching into “sideways”, the opening track from their latest record, everyone for ten minutes. Released less than a month ago, the setlist was dominated by songs off of everyone for ten minutes, including leading singles “the van”, “you and forever”, and “dirty wedding dress”, each met with a chorus of cheers before the crowd joined in, belting the lyrics of each track back at the band.
Bleachers fed off of the energy from the crowd and returned it back tenfold, running and dancing across the stage as they took turns jumping between instruments, picking up a variety of guitars, saxophones, and sitting down at the various pianos that littered the stage. Fan favourite tracks like “Modern Girl”, “Don’t Take The Money”, and “I Wanna Get Better” were each met with a deafening scream of appreciation from the audience, pushing the energy in the venue through the roof.
The name Bleachers has become synonymous with more than just their music, representing a larger legacy on the music industry lead by Jack Antonoff. More than just a personal creative outlet, Bleachers is deservedly notorious for pushing the limits of their sound, constantly reinventing and innovating, challenging everyone else to keep up. Catch them now on the BLEACHERS FOREVER tour, and stream everyone for ten minutes, out everywhere now.
