I Prevail – Credit Union One Amphitheater
Detroit Local band aka I Prevail just came to Credit Union One Amphitheater and burned the house down with their talent! As someone who grew up in Michigan and watched these guys play tiny basement shows to now co-headlining an amphitheater is absolutely huge and shows how much hard work and dedication can really pay off! The band of course would not stop thanking their fans for being the reason they are able to tour and be a band for the last 10 years! They also of coursed talked about the famous cover of Blank Space that went viral and how thankful that their fans who found them because of that cover are still here to this day and supporting them since then! I also loved seeing Lizzy Hale of Halestorm coming out and performing their new song, “Can You See Me In The Dark” live! It was absolutely incredible and honestly sounded just like the recording that I listen to from Spotify! I Prevail of course made jokes about liking different hockey teams and other various sports but at the end of the day, they wouldn’t be here without all the fans! If you can, I highly recommend seeing IPrevail, Halestorm, Hollywood Undead, and Fit For A King on this current summer tour!
