Indie pop band Men I Trust, formed in 2014, kicked off the European leg of their tour this month, following their North American tour over the summer of 2025.

On the 24th of October 2025, Men I Trust performed their second night at the Eventim Apollo in London.

Doors opened at 7 p.m., in time for the support act, Liana Flores, best known for her song ‘rises the moon’, to begin at 7:55. She hyped the crowd up for the main act, Men I Trust, who took the stage at 9 p.m. Her voice mesmerised the audience, and her folk-inspired songs were beautiful to listen to. She thanked the crowd numerous times and used her stage presence to wish a bandmate a happy birthday, with the audience singing along.

Shortly after, Men I Trust started at 9, with lots of crowd movement beginning, the lights hit, and they jumped onto the stage to perform ‘to ease you’, from their newest album. Their set
lasted an hour and a half, flicking between their two new albums: Equus Asinus and Equus Caballus, released in March and May of 2025, and older hits like ‘Sugar’, ‘Hard to Let Go’, and
‘Uncle Jazz’. They kept the crowd engaged and eager to hear more, with the lead singer
Emmanuelle speaks between songs to talk with the crowd. At around 10.15, she thanked
the crowd for coming and began to leave, teasing the crowd to come back then and perform
two final songs.

They had a merchandise stand with a variety of items, a poster for £5, tote bags for £20 and
a few tour T-shirts, some of which were Europe exclusive at £30 each, affordable pricing for
a tour. Liana Flores also had merch available at the concert.

Their tour continues through Europe until the 31st of October, moving to America to support
Billie Eilish at 6 of her shows, then to Florida for five shows. They then move to their home
country of Canada in December and January for six shows and lastly to Asia in January,
finishing February 1st 2026. Tickets are on sale now, with all future European dates sold out,
showing their fans are loyal.
