Blackbear in Concert
Blackbear's high-energy shows direct the spotlight onto his moody, emotional R&B jams. A jack of all trades in the music business, he also shows off his many talents in concert, hopping behind the keyboard stand and picking up guitars while hitting his signature high notes. Pairing simple yet effective video treatments with his gritty music, Blackbear's concerts are a feast for all the senses — and feelings.
Blackbear Background
Blackbear has been a force on the pop charts since 2012, when he co-wrote Justin Bieber's chart-topping smash "Boyfriend." In the following years he carved out a name for himself as one of pop-R&B's power players by collaborating with heavy hitters like fellow "Boyfriend" cowriter Mike Posner, hip-pop powerhouse G-Eazy and rap-rock superstars Linkin Park. The man behind Blackbear, Mat Musto, was born in Pennsylvania in 1990. He began his music career in Florida in his teens as the vocalist for the pop-punk band Polaroid, but shifted his focus in the early 2010s to the emotionally resonant R&B he's known for these days. He self-released his 2015 debut Deadroses, which included the G-Eazy team-up "90210," and followed it with another self-released album, Help. Eventually he signed to Interscope, releasing his gold-certified third album, Digital Druglord, in 2017 and Anonymous in April 2019, which featured the singles "1 Sided Love" and "High1X." Blackbear has remained extremely productive over the years, co-writing for Nick Jonas and Mike Shinoda as well as producing releases by Gnash and Tyler Carter in addition to his own touring and recording.
Previously, Blackbear has brought crowds to capacity at the likes of The Fillmore (Minneapolis), The Fillmore (Detroit) and the Coca-Cola Roxy (Atlanta).
Encore
Blackbear was over two hours late to the stage. They had crappy artists stall while waiting for him to come out. And the auto tune was AWFUL. We are huge Blackbear fans but we had to leave halfway through. Awful experience
Blackbear was amazing. Even just being out of the hospital he still put on an unforgettable show
My daughter played some of Blackbear's music on Spotify and thought it was decent. I took her to this concert and could not believe how poorly each act performed. I've seen high school bands and can tell you that I sing in the shower better than the opening acts. It was cringe-worthy. Blackbear would have been much better if it weren't for the CONSTANT cursing and references to sexual acts. This was an all ages show!!! Seriously, it was just unnecessary and didn't improve the performance AT ALL. I was disgusted. It's a shame because the guy has talent. Too bad it will be wasted because people are not going to want to experience that again. This was definitely a one time event... I will not be wasting any more of my money on his merchandise, music, or concerts.
Best concert ever great venue and it was a memorable night for my friends and I.
I have no words to express how great this concert was.
