Black Pumas at The Wiltern

When Black Pumas’ self-titled debut landed back in 2019, the Austin duo set the industry on fire, almost as combustible and rapturous as their signature sound itself. As well as scoring a career total of a staggering seven Grammy Award nominations, singer/songwriter Eric Burton and guitarist/producer Adrian Quesada gained massive success as a live act. The duo are loved around the world for delivering an electric show that Eric Burton aptly refers to as “electric church.” Black Pumas’ colorful palette is a heavenly hybrid of soul and symphonic pop, wild journeys into jazz-funk and psychedelia, and starry-eyed ballads that feel as if they were dropped down from the cosmos. And you get the chance to see all he magic live!

This trek comes in celebration of Black Pumas’ sophomore album, Chronicles of a Diamond. Dropped October 27, 2023 via ATO, the record is already a fan favorite! From this hotly awaited concert, you can expect to dance the night away to their latest songs. With new hits like “More Than A Love Song,” “Mrs. Postman,” and “Gemini Sun,” it’s no wonder The Guardian hailed the record as the “Texas soul revivalists’ game-raising second album.” On the record, Eric Burton explains, “More than anything I wanted to make something we’d be thrilled to play live 200 days a year.”

This hotly awaited show will celebrate Black Pumas’ incredible journey from their self-titled debut to their multi-dimensional sophomore album. The trek kicked off on May 4 in New Orleans, and is making its way to The Wiltern on Friday 27th September 2024. With immersive production, stellar lighting, and incredible sound equipment, there is no better place to catch this hot concert! When industry heavyweights like Hippie Sabotage, Lil Wayne, and Bryson Tiller are performing this year alone, you know it’s a world class venue!
