THE HOLLOW CROWN TOUR THROWS A PARTY FOR THE MORALLY INCOMPETENT WITH THE HAUNT AND MISSIO

The Hollow Crown tour took Columbus’s Newport Music Hall by storm on April 4th. It features WesGhost, Missio, The Haunt, Rosecoloredworld, ThxSoMuch, Oxymorrons, and Guardin.

While The Haunt and Missio generally have different vibes, both have an unmatched ethereal, dark and fairy-like quality.

Sibling duo The Haunt is vocalist Anastasia Grace and guitarist/vocalist Maxamillion Haunt, who threw a party for the morally incompetent. The Florida-based duo blends industrial, metal, and alt-pop. Giving a stunning performance where they performed hits, new and old like “A Little Like Hell”, “Morally Incompetent,” and “New Addiction”. The dynamic duo had the crowd bouncing they were so engaged that the bassist jumped into the crowd! Anastasia gave gothic pixie energy, giving her all into the music, and it showed: engaging your mind, body, and soul with emotionally charged lyricism.

In the words of our music manager Alicia Kobasic, “Someone get Anastasia in a horror movie stat.”

MISSIO is a “genre-bending & electrically dark duo” hailing from Austin, TX. Consisting of vocalist/multi-instrumentalist/producer Matthew Brue and engineer/multi-instrumentalist/producer David Butler. This duo lives up to the genre-bending they claim. I mean, who includes an Aztec death whistle in their set? Well, Missio does, and it was eerie and startling in the best way possible. Missio’s eclectic performance gave twenty one pilots meets David Bowie, specifically in the 80s cult classic Labyrinth. With 80’s synth vibes, electronic pop and an Aztec death whistle, genre-bending is putting it lightly. I definitely did not think I would hear a cover of Kid Cudi’s “The Pursuit of Happiness” at an alt/rock show, but MISSIO made it work. They completely folded multiple genres, creating their own niche within a niche. MISSIO kept the crowded room at Newport Music Hall feeling like a community. In their own words, “Community in these rooms is the only thing that’s going to save the fucking planet,” and it truly felt like everyone in that community could save the planet.

MISSIO has a new album coming out on July 3rd called Love and Heartbreak. You can pre-save it HERE.
