When you think of early 2010s pop music, there are some big names that come to mind, with Kesha being one of the biggest. Getting to see her live at Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre in West Valley City, Utah, felt like opening up a time capsule from 16 years ago, and it didn’t disappoint. Kesha paid a visit here on her Freedom tour, and with supporting acts from Sizzy Rocket and Chromeo, the entire concert was set to be a raging fun time.

The Union Events Center in Salt Lake City transformed into a dreamlike electronic oasis as Cannons and Bob Moses brought their co-headlining “Afterglow Tour” to a packed and enthusiastic Union Events Center. The evening offered two distinct but complementary musical experiences, blending shimmering synth-pop, atmospheric grooves, and dance-infused rhythms into a night that felt both intimate and expansive. Fans arrived early and stayed engaged throughout, creating an energy that steadily built from the first notes of Cannons’ set to the final moments of Bob Moses’ headlining performance.
