Continuing a landmark 2019, Denver-based artist Nick Miller—known professionally as Illenium—released his third full-length studio album, Ascend, August 16.
November 16, Dallas-area fans got to celebrate with the great showman when he played The Pavilion at the Toyota Music Factory. In Dallas, Illenium was supported by Ekali, Dabin and William Black.
Illenium’s Dallas stop was part of the Ascend Tour, his biggest North American headline run to date. Kicking off in Pittsburgh in September, the arena jaunt will play to well over 250,000 fans in 30 cities. Illenium is hitting legendary venues across North America including New York City’s Madison Square Garden, with the tour wrapping at the famed Staples Center in Los Angeles December 7.
