Kicking off their All or Nothing tour, FIGHTMASTER played El Cid in Los Angeles, California this past month. The moment the band stepped on stage, concertgoers were sucked into the performance. The band, consisting of ER Fightmaster (frontman), Patrick Dean (guitar), Nicholas M. Gage (piano), and April Lee (drums), had an infectious upbeat energy, creating a fun and energetic environment.
FIGHTMASTER played many of their well loved songs, including “Violence,” “Cowboy Tumbleweed,” and “Bad Man.” Alongside these songs, they played multiple songs from their first full-length album, Tolerance, set to release on June 5th. Playing both released singles such as “All or Nothing” and “Quicksand,” plus unreleased songs including “Minotaur” and “Rumble.” This created more excitement for fans regarding the upcoming album. Throughout the show, ER Fightmaster was constantly making the audience laugh with their humor and crowd interactions (despite also making jokes stating they needed to work on it).
Once the show had ended, band members stayed behind talking to and taking photos with fans, making the night even more special for many. The band’s lively energy and love for fans made a memorable and entertaining night for all.
