Leon Thomas's Flying Concert on Boeing 767

0:00On April 3rd, Leon Thomas just dropped a wild performance inside a real Boeing 767-400 airplane. He and his band played a six-song set for fans, strapped in with tray tables up, turning the cabin into a flying concert stage. This kicks off overhead originals, a fresh music series from Delta and YouTube that's premiering right now. The gig pulled from his Grammy-winning album Mut, with tracks like the title song, Vives Don't Lie, and yes it is, plus cuts from his earlier work and latest EP folks. Thomas called it surreal watching gear, load onto the jet, and his team amped up the vibe to match his style perfectly. As a breakout R&B star, he's all about unique live shows, building on past promo gigs and hangars. Fans got hands-up energy mid-flight, making it a one-of-a-kind memory that celebrates artists in fresh spaces. Right now, he's wrapping a European and UK tour on April 3rd, then jumping on Bruno Mars' North American Stadium run later this month.

1:00Touring fuels his bucket list of spots to revisit for food and culture, even if it's aggrined. He's staying creative on the road, finishing a stack of songs with help from heroes, like Ferrell and Paris Studios. Moments like these, Grammy wins and drink collabs keep his music documenting this peak in his career. From The World of Music, powered by AI, this is Music News Today, I'm Corey with The Story.
