Island Glow Tour

The **Island Glow Tour** was a headline concert tour around the United States by American reggae rock band Dirty Heads. It was in support of their eighth studio album, *Midnight Control* (2022). The tour began at KettleHouse Amphitheater on June 13, 2023 in Bonner-West Riverside, Montana, and concluded at Roanoke Island Festival Park on August 6, 2023 in Outer Banks, North Carolina.

It featured special guests Lupe Fiasco, Yelawolf, G. Love & Special Sauce, Little Stranger, Tropidelic, and Bikini Trill, on select dates.

## Background

In conjunction with Fiasco's first date of the tour as an opening act, his single "Channel No3" was released. Along with this, there were reports of the new song, "Better Days," being performed.

When the subject of him performing songs partially for the Cleveland show was brought up on Reddit, Fiasco himself addressed, "[T]his is not my tour. I am not the headliner and I only have a hard cut off at 50 minutes no overtime or cutting into Dirty Heads time so we are on a tight clock and sometimes songs need to be cut short on the fly to stay on time. [...] So we can't do full songs for every song or we'd only be be able to do a few songs that people actually know and then people would complain that we only did a few songs." He added that it was his job to hype the crowd for those that came for Dirty Heads, and those that "want the full experience" should "come to an actual Lupe Fiasco show" when he returns.

For several concerts, including Bridgeport, Bethlehem, Raleigh, Doswell, and Ashville, Fiasco wore his Société Internationale d'Ur shirt.
