Country Music singer, Cody Johnson, brought his “Leather Deluxe Tour” to Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre on Saturday, Jun 28, 2025.  He brought Wade Bowen and Mae Estes along with him.  The last time we covered CoJo was back in February 2020, just weeks before the world shut down due to the pandemic.  He was opening for Country Music superstar Miranda Lambert at the Delta Center in downtown Salt Lake City.  I remember enjoying his energetic performance.  He set the bar high for Miranda, and it made for a great night of Country Music.

There’s something so cool about seeing a musician along the journey of their career go from supporting other artists on their tours to headlining their own tour.  I was happy for Cody Johnson that his career has gone the way it’s gone.  He not only brought his headlining tour to one of Utah’s largest concert venues, but he sold the place out!  I’ve said this before, and I’ll most likely say it every time I attend a Country concert, but there is nothing like the vibe at this type of show.  People were in great spirits. Everyone seemed to be having a good time.  And this was in between sets!  I’m sure you can imagine what it was like when the music was actually being played.  I was happy to be at Utah First Amp for this show.

There are just some shows that are more anticipated than others.  Mumford & Sons was that show for me.  It had been six years since the guys had played Utah.  This would be my first opportunity to review and photograph one of my favorite bands. It seemed very clear inside Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre that I was not the only one eagerly anticipating this concert.  We had waited long enough, and now we were all getting to experience the North American Tour promoting the release of “Rushmere”.

On October 11th, the Utah First Amphitheatre was treated to night one of three shows by Imagine Dragons. The band is technically from Las Vegas, but we here in Utah know that they wrote many of their early hits and gained a large following here in Utah. More specifically Provo, Utah often performing at Velour Live Music Gallery. From that time on, Utah has been an area that has been most loyal to Imagine Dragons. Hence the multi-show residency.

Post Malone started his F-1 Trillion Tour right here in his hometown SLC, Utah. He did a two-day stint and both days were packed. Seems the first show on Sunday was busier but not by much. I was able to shoot the images of the artists on Sunday the 8th and then I had the opportunity to view the show on the 9th. I will include both of Post Malone’s setlists. There was a slight variation on each night. Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre holds a max capacity of 25,000, so the energy was high for both nights.

It was an epic scene out at Utah First Credit Union Amphitheatre.  It wasn’t just a sold-out crowd.  That would be awesome on its own.  But there was a buzz in the air I had not felt in some time.  There had been an anticipation for the show the moment it was announced.  I don’t remember a show being talked about quite so much.  If I wore my I Was/ I Am Tour shirt out of the house, someone for sure would compliment me and ask me if I was going to the show.  It was so exciting to walk into Utah First Amp and see all the excitement.
