THE GREAT OPENERS OF HALSEY’S 2025 TOUR
The moment fans have been waiting for for nearly three years: Halsey is going back on tour. Announced on Thursday, the New Jersey singer-songwriter is hitting 32 cities across North America on ‘For My Last Trick: The Tour’’ supporting her recent album “The Great Impersonator.”
Halsey’s 5th studio album, which dropped last October, explored the singer's personal struggles recently, being more vulnerable than ever before throughout the 18-track record infused with pop, rock and countless musical influences. Ahead of their album’s release, Halsey — who uses she/they pronouns — said she was “lucky to be alive” after their battle with lupus and a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Creating “The Great Impersonator” was their way of grappling with life and death.
The singer played with this theme on their tour announcement teaser video featuring Halsey arriving at her “funeral” that gets canceled for the tour.
Halsey is bringing many familiar and new faces with her on the road, calling the opening artists her “ensemble cast” of the tour.
Here is the go-to guide for each opener on the For My Last Trick: The Tour to get all concert-goers as ready as possible for their show.
Evanescence
This iconic female-fronted gothic rock band have helped shape their genre and inspire many incredible artists, including Halsey. During promotion for “The Great Impersonator,” the singer recreated Amy Lee of Evanescence’s look on the “Fallen” album cover. The band inspired Halsey’s track “Lonely is the Muse.”
Evanescence are most known for their hits “Bring Me To Life” and “My Immortal.” Lee, the co-founder and lead vocalist, has been a strong force in rock for decades, paving the way for more women in the scene today.
Evanescence will join Halsey on just one stop at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA on May 14, 2025.
Alvvays
Formed in 2011, this Canadian indie-pop band have released three albums, each one featuring their signature anthemic choruses and dream-like beats.
Another female-fronted band, Alvvays (pronounced “always”) released their latest album “Blue Rev” in 2022 which received universal acclaim from critics for its “exhilarating” and “zippy” songs, according to NPR’s review.
Alvvays will join Halsey on many dates, including Alpharetta, Tampa, Hollywood, Charlotte, Raleigh, Bristow, Wantagh, Mansfield, Holmdel and Camden.
Del Water Gap
Samuel Holden Jaffe — better known as Del Water Gap — is a singer, songwriter and producer from Brooklyn, NY. He rose to prominence in 2020 after the release of his single "Ode to a Conversation Stuck in Your Throat" that has been featured in popular TV shows “Heartstopper” and “The Summer I Turned Pretty.”
The release of his 2023 album “I Miss You Already + I Haven’t Left Yet” left listeners with a sense of longing and mind-numbing vulnerability and received high praise from critics.
This past summer, Jaffe joined Niall Horan on his nearly sold-out summer U.S. run of “The Show: Live on Tour.”
Del Water Gap will perform at just three dates with Halsey: Concord, Phoenix and Dallas.
Alemeda
The Ethiopian-born and Phoenix-raised singer blends R&B and pop to create anthemic, self-empowering tunes.
Growing up, the singer was told her Muslim religion was at odds with pop music — she wasn’t allowed to listen to it at all. Now, Alemeda is creating her own path balancing faith and catchy tunes, including her breakthrough viral song “Gonna Bleach My Eyebrows”.
Before making her debut on For My Last Trick: The Tour, Alemeda is joining UK singer-songwriter Rachel Chinouriri on her U.S. tour.
Alemeda will perform on Halsey’s stage twice, in California cities Lincoln and Highlands.
Sir Chloe
An indie-rock band from Vermont, Sir Chloe was created by frontwoman Dana Foote for her college thesis. Luckily, she stuck with the project.
Known for their viral hit “Michelle” — which Foote wrote on the floor of her dorm — the band has toured with Portugal. The Man and alt-J and has released two albums since 2020.
Their sound focuses on rich narratives coupled with powerful vocals and soulful melodies. Foote says Cage the Elephant and Balkan music are their primary musical inspirations.
Sir Chloe will join Halsey in Mansfield, Bangor, Holmdel, Uncasville, Toronto, Clarkston, Cuyahoga Falls, Burgettstown and Chicago.
flowerovlove
English singer-songwriter Joyce Cissé, known professionally as flowerovlove, began making music at just 6 years old, writing songs in a notebook throughout her childhood.
Cissé released her debut EP “Think Flower” in May 2021 after she was inspired by her love for the planet, humanity and nature. With three EPs under her belt today, flowerovlove’s sound emphasizes dreamy vocals, psychedelic pop and mellow synths.
Because of its queer-inclusive bridge, “girl like me” quickly gained popularity on social media. Also, her single “Love You” was featured in the third season of “Heartstopper”.
flowerovlove will accompany Halsey in Burgettstown, Chicago, St. Louis, Somerset, Morrison, Salt Lake City, Ridgefield and Auburn.
Magdalena Bay
A duo from Miami, Magdalena Bay offer an eclectic, mystical vibe to alternative pop music. They also have enthralling visuals and stories to match their music. Released last year, their second album “Imaginal Disk” follows an alien named “True” who rejects a disk in its head and begins to learn about what it means to be human.
Magdalena Bay is joining Halsey this summer in St. Louis, Somerset, WI, Morrison, CO, Salt Lake City, UT, Ridgefield, WA and Auburn, WA in between their own headline tour.
Hope Tala
This British singer-songwriter is currently awaiting the release on her first album “Hope Handwritten” coming out on Feb. 28.
Singing for the first time at 15 years old, Hope Tala got her start on the music distribution site SoundCloud. She has two EPs already released and blends her musical style with R&B, bossa nova and crisp acoustics.
Hope Tala will join Halsey in Charlotte, Raleigh, Bristow, Wantagh, Bangor, Camden and Uncasville.
Royel Otis
An Australian pop duo formed by Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic in 2019, Royel Otis blends psychedelic rock, new wave and indie pop to form a unique college rock sound that captivates listeners. They broke through in 2023 with their humorously named EP “Sofa King.”
In January of last year, the band was listed on the Grammy Awards’ “25 Artists to Watch in 2024”. Shortly after, they released their debut album “Pratts and Payne”.
Royel Otis will appear on three dates of Halsey’s tour: Toronto, Clarkston and Cuyahoga Falls.
The Warning
Made up of three sisters, The Warning is a Mexican rock band formed in 2013. The sisters have released four studio albums, including the 2024 album Keep Me Fed. Their strong vocals on top of powerful drums and hypnotizing basslines create incredibly high-energy rock tracks that will get anyone on their feet.
With their parent’s passion for rock music and the sisters’ love for the video game “Rock Band,” they were pushed toward the genre early on.
The Warning will join Halsey in Concord, Phoenix, Los Angeles, Dallas, Durant, Rogers, Nashville, Alpharetta, Tampa and Hollywood.
