Who Is Giveon? The Voice Behind The Concerts
Giveon is an American R&B singer-songwriter from Long Beach, California. He is best known for a deep baritone voice that feels closer to classic crooners than to today’s pop-R&B. That vocal tone is the main reason his live shows draw such loyal crowds.
His sound draws on 1960s–70s jazz and soul. He has often named Frank Sinatra as an early influence. Having followed his catalog since the early EPs, I think this old-school grounding is what makes his concerts feel intimate even in large rooms.
Giveon started with self-released singles before he signed an Epic deal. His big break came in 2020 when he was featured on Drake’s “Chicago Freestyle,” which climbed the Billboard Hot 100. That same year, his debut EP Take Time earned him a Grammy nomination.
In 2021 he co-wrote and sang on Justin Bieber’s “Peaches,” which brought a Song of the Year nomination. He also opened for Snoh Aalegra early in his career, which gave him real stage experience before he headlined his own shows.
Giveon Albums And Songs
His catalog is small but strong, and almost every project feeds directly into his setlists.
| Year | Project | Type | Key Songs |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | Take Time | EP | Like I Want You, Heartbreak Anniversary, Vanish, Favorite Mistake, Take Time (Interlude) |
| 2020 | When It’s All Said and Done | EP | Stuck on You, This Will Do, World We Created |

| 2025 | Beloved | Sophomore album | Keeper, Rather Be, Twenties, Backup Plan, Diamonds for Your Pain, Mud, Jezebel, I Can Tell |
Other songs fans often hear live include “The Beach,” “Still Your Best,” “Make You Mine,” “Last Time,” “This Ain’t Love” and “Dec 11th.”
Is Giveon Currently On Tour?
No, Giveon is not on tour right now. His concert schedule currently shows zero upcoming concerts and no dates scheduled for 2026–2027. He is off tour after wrapping up the Dear Beloved Tour and a run of summer festival shows.
His most recent live appearances were European jazz festivals in July 2026. After that, no new tour announcements have been made.
For fans, the best move is to follow his artist page on concert platforms and turn on concert alerts. Some platforms also let you request a show in your city. Those requests help artists and promoters see where demand is strongest when they plan new tours.
Give Or Take Tour 2022
The Give Or Take Tour was Giveon’s 2022 North American headlining tour and his first major run as a headliner. It supported his debut album Give or Take, released on June 24, 2022 through Epic Records.
The tour kicked off in mid-August and wrapped up in late October. It covered theaters, music halls and outdoor amphitheaters across the United States and Canada. He also played a festival date at Primavera Sound during this period.
The venue list gives a good sense of the tour’s scale:
| Region | Cities and Venues |
|---|---|
| West Coast & Canada | Malkin Bowl (Vancouver BC), Roseland Theater (Portland OR), The Paramount Theatre (Seattle WA), The Fox Theater (Oakland CA), Hollywood Forever Cemetery (Los Angeles CA) |
| Southwest & Mountain | Marquee Theatre (Tempe AZ), The Union Event Center (Salt Lake City UT), The Mission Ballroom (Denver CO), The Fillmore area (Las Vegas NV) |
| Texas & South | 713 Music Hall (Houston TX), Stubb’s Waller Creek Amphitheatre (Austin TX), House of Blues (Dallas TX), The Fillmore (New Orleans LA), Marathon Music Works (Nashville TN), Coca-Cola Roxy (Atlanta GA) |
| Florida | The Oasis (Miami FL), Jannus Live (St. Petersburg FL), The Factory area (Orlando FL) |

(Columbus OH), Agora Theater (Cleveland OH), Stage AE (Pittsburgh PA) |

Support came from Fana Hues, Saleka, Rimon and Jenevieve on select dates. Each opener fit the moody, slow-burn tone of the headline set.
Give Or Take Tour Ticket Info
Tickets for the Give Or Take Tour went on sale on Friday, June 17, 2022, at 10 a.m. local time. That was one week before the album dropped, so many fans bought tickets before hearing the full record.
Sales ran through his official website and standard ticketing partners. Big-city shows like Radio City Music Hall moved fast. From my experience tracking R&B tours of this size, the first hour of a general on-sale matters most for theater-level artists.
Dear Beloved, The Tour (2025–2026)
Dear Beloved The Tour was Giveon’s biggest tour so far. It supported his sophomore album Beloved, released on July 11, 2025. The tour moved him from theaters into arenas and large amphitheaters, and it reached fans on four continents.
It was split into three legs: North America in late 2025, Asia and Oceania in early 2026, and Europe in spring 2026. Each leg had its own support acts, which kept the show fresh for fans who attended more than one date.
2025 North America Dates
The North American leg began in early October and ran into November 2025. It focused on major U.S. markets plus key cities in Canada.
- West: WaMu Theater (Seattle WA), UBC Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre (Vancouver Canada), Bill Graham Civic Auditorium (San Francisco CA), Greek Theatre (Los Angeles CA), Fontainebleau (Las Vegas NV), Arizona Financial Theatre (Phoenix AZ)
- Texas & South: The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory (Irving TX), Smart Financial Centre (Sugar Land TX), Synovus Bank Amphitheater (Atlanta GA), Skyla Credit Union Amphitheatre (Charlotte NC)
- Midwest & Canada: Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom (Chicago IL), Fox Theatre (Detroit MI), Coca-Cola Coliseum (Toronto Canada)
- East: Freedom Mortgage Pavilion (Camden NJ), The Anthem (Washington DC), MGM Music Hall at Fenway (Boston MA), Madison Square Garden (New York City NY)
Madison Square Garden was the headline moment of this leg. For an R&B singer whose first headlining shows were in mid-size halls only three years earlier, that is a major step up.
Special guests on select dates included Free Nationals, Charlotte Day Wilson, Sabrina Claudio and Baby Rose.
2026 Asia And Oceania Dates
The tour moved to Asia and Oceania from January to February 2026. For many fans in these regions, it was their first chance to see him live.
| Country | City | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| South Korea | Seoul | Myunghwa Live Hall |
| Hong Kong | Hong Kong | TIDES |
| Thailand | Bangkok | UOB LIVE |
| Philippines | Manila | New Frontier Theater |
| Singapore | Singapore | The Star Theatre |
| Australia | Perth | Perth HPC |
| Australia | Melbourne | Margaret Court Arena |
| Australia | Sydney | ICC Sydney Theatre |
| Australia | Brisbane | Riverstage |
| New Zealand | Auckland | Spark Arena |
2026 Europe Dates
The European shows ran through March 2026. Sasha Keable supported this leg on multiple dates.
- Annexet, Stockholm Sweden
- Unity Arena, Fornebu (Oslo) Norway
- K.B. Hallen, Frederiksberg Denmark
- Uber Eats Music Hall, Berlin Germany
- Adidas Arena, Paris France
- 3Arena, Dublin Ireland
- The O2, London UK
- AO Arena, Manchester UK
- Mitsubishi Electric Halle, Düsseldorf Germany
- Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam Netherlands
- The Hall, Dübendorf (Zürich) Switzerland
Playing The O2 and Ziggo Dome showed how strong his European fan base has become. London in particular has long been one of his most dependable cities.
Festival Appearances And Other Giveon Shows
Apart from headlining tours, Giveon has built a strong festival résumé. Festival sets are shorter and more hit-focused, which makes them a good entry point for new fans.
| Year | Event | Location |
|---|---|---|
| 2021 | Lollapalooza 2021 | Chicago |
| 2023 | Australia/New Zealand shows | Palais Theatre (Melbourne), Hordern Pavilion (Sydney), Gold Coast, Auckland |
| 2026 | Coachella Weekend 1 (Apr 10–12) | Empire Polo Club, Indio CA |
| 2026 | Coachella Weekend 2 (Apr 17–19) | Empire Polo Club, Indio CA |
| 2026 | Montreux Jazz Festival (Jul 10) | Auditorium Stravinski, Montreux Switzerland |
| 2026 | NN North Sea Jazz Festival (Jul 12) | Rotterdam Ahoy, Netherlands |
Coachella in 2026 was a big moment, putting him in front of a huge mixed crowd across two weekends. The jazz festival bookings in Montreux and Rotterdam make perfect sense given his 1960s–70s jazz influences.
He has also performed at the Hollywood Bowl and appeared on bills alongside artists like Snoh Aalegra and YEBBA over the years.
Giveon Setlist: What He Plays Live
His latest setlist, from the Montreux Jazz Festival on July 10, 2026, is a good guide to what fans can expect. It blends new Beloved tracks with the early hits that made his name.
Songs performed at Montreux Jazz Festival 2026:
- From Beloved: Keeper, Rather Be, Twenties, Backup Plan, Diamonds for Your Pain, Mud, Jezebel, I Can Tell
- Early hits: Heartbreak Anniversary, Like I Want You, Stuck on You, Still Your Best
- Fan favorites: Lost Me, Garden Kisses, The Beach, Dec 11th
- Features: Chicago Freestyle
“Heartbreak Anniversary” is usually the loudest sing-along of the night. Whenever I’ve watched fan footage from his shows, that song is where the crowd almost takes over the vocals.
His live band gives the songs more room than the studio versions. Slower tracks often get extended outros, which suits his voice well.
Support Acts And Frequent Tour Partners
Giveon picks openers who share his soulful, emotional style. That keeps the whole night consistent in mood instead of jumping between genres.
| Tour | Support Acts |
|---|---|
| Give Or Take Tour (2022) | Fana Hues, Saleka, Rimon, Jenevieve |
| Dear Beloved Tour, North America (2025) | Free Nationals, Charlotte Day Wilson, Sabrina Claudio, Baby Rose |
| Dear Beloved Tour, Europe (2026) | Sasha Keable |
Among the artists he has appeared with most often are Sasha Keable, Fana Hues, Baby Rose and Sabrina Claudio. Baby Rose stands out because she has joined him on both tours and festival bills.
If you arrive early, don’t skip the openers. Many fans say the support acts are a real bonus rather than filler.
Most Played Cities And Touring Stats
Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, London and San Diego are Giveon’s most played cities. These cities have hosted him several times across tours, festivals and one-off shows.
Across his career, he has played well over 100 concerts. His touring has also covered around 117K miles, a sign of how quickly he went from local shows to a global schedule.
His busiest touring years were 2022 and 2025, the years his two albums came out. Years without a new record, like 2023, featured fewer but more targeted shows, such as the Australia and New Zealand run.
What Fans Say About Giveon Concerts
Most fan reviews rate his concerts around 4–5 stars. The most common praise is that he sounds just like his recordings. His live vocals are steady and rich, which is not always the case with R&B singers on tour.
Fans also describe him as humble on stage. He talks to the crowd warmly and doesn’t lean on big theatrics. The band and lighting design get strong mentions too, especially on the Dear Beloved Tour.
There are some common complaints worth knowing:
- Long waits between openers and the headline set
- Heat at outdoor venues during summer dates
- Crowd pushing near the front in general admission areas
- Merch prices, with one UK fan noting shirts around £30
VIP holders often get early entry, which helps them secure a spot near the front. For general admission fans, arriving early makes a big difference.
Tips For Attending A Giveon Concert
Sign up for concert alerts before a tour is announced. His ticket sales usually open one to two weeks after the announcement, and the best seats go on the first day.
Pick your venue type carefully. Seated theaters give a calmer, more intimate listening experience. Arena and general admission shows have more crowd energy, but also more pushing near the stage.
For outdoor venues, bring water and plan for heat. Eat before you arrive, since long waits between sets are common.
Learn the Beloved tracks before the show. Recent setlists lean heavily on that album, so knowing songs like “Keeper” and “Twenties” makes the night more fun.
