This past October, Master Peace brought his No More Underground Tour to New York, taking over one of the city’s most infamous intimate venues for a night that felt quite literally electric.
The stop marked his final performance before crossing into Canada, and the weight of that moment translated directly into the room. The crowd reflected how magnetic the performance was where you could see diehard fans shouting every lyric alongside first-time listeners. There was a palpable sense of discovery in the room.
