On their Good Together Tour, the multi-genre quintet Lake Street Dive uses varied contrasts to make every show impactful and memorable. And lighting director Andrew Froehlich uses X-Laser Skywriter HPX M-10 fixtures to enhance the impact of every song and lighting look. It’s a design that they call “joyful rebellion."

A common test for any professional LD is to create an impactful show no matter the size of the venue. Whether a small club or massive stadium, effective lighting energizes the audience, expresses the band’s artistry and empowers the designer to use all the tools in their creative arsenal. Empowered by X-Laser fixtures and Mercury Laser Control firmware, designer Ben Jarrett of Squeek Lights in Sayreville, N.J., checked all of those boxes and then some with his design for metalcore band Beartooth on its 2024 North American Tour.

Coming off the Damn Strait Tour, Hornback said he understands how concertgoers want to capture the memories of seeing the talented McCreery on stage. However, he thinks audience members always get the best experience by soaking in the experience with their eyes and ears. And that experience includes the lasers.

When we got the chance to supply custom laser systems for Coldplay, we knew we had to create something truly special. Check out what we dreamed up and see how it all came together for this epic tour!
