We Lost The Sea has officially kicked off their first-ever North American tour, and I had the privilege of covering the opening night in Dallas at RBC Deep Ellum—thanks to Bird’s Robe for making it happen. From the moment I arrived, the entire WLTS crew couldn’t have been more welcoming. I spent some time with the band before the show, grabbing some behind-the-scenes portraits and capturing everything leading up to their performance.

As expected, the show was nothing short of powerful. WLTS delivered a set that felt like it swept the audience away on a massive tide—waves of sound that transport you somewhere else entirely, if only for a moment. If you’re a fan of WLTS or post-rock in general, this is a tour you don’t want to miss.
