FINAL BOW | 05.24.26
MJ THE MUSICAL 1st NATIONAL TOUR

1,020+ shows completed. The only band member on stage in the same chair from day one in 2023 to the final curtain in 2026.

Yesterday marked the final performance of the First National Tour of MJ The Musical. I am deeply grateful for every city, every stage, the lessons learned, and the people who made this run historic.

Thanks For The Memories 🥷💙🤨

THANK YOU GOD 🙏 First country tour in the books. 🤠🎸

Spent this past week holding down the low end for @drakewhitestomp on a three-city run. Great music, great band, and great hangs on the tour bus. I couldn’t have asked for a better first run in country music.

Shoutout to my brother🔥🎸 @waltb_onbass for the call and for trusting me to keep the seat warm. 🙏
