Fortunately (or maybe unfortunately) for everyone reading this, you’re going to find out pretty quickly that I love Our Last Night. Objectivity will likely just be placed down quietly on the desk while I write this, because I have never in the last decade been to an OLN show that I didn’t have a blast at. It should then come as no surprise that I absolutely couldn’t turn down the opportunity to see them on their Final Tour when it came through Toronto on Wednesday.
In addition to the powerhouse that is OLN, we were treated to two great opening acts in Wind Walkers and Grayscale. While the show was a little late starting – set times getting pushed by 15 minutes due to some delays with the VIP Meet and Greets that took place prior to the doors opening, the short delay didn’t seem to have any other consequences (shortened sets, etc.).
This was my first time seeing Wind Walkers. However, I am very familiar with them and have been wanting to catch them for a few years. I’m so glad that it finally worked out. Their 8-song set was exactly what the crowd needed to get the evening started, and I’m quite certain that they gained several new fans with the way everyone was into their energetic melodic metal/rock mix. They have a new EP coming out on October 3; I encourage you to go and listen and give them the attention they deserve.
Next was Grayscale. This was the second time I had the pleasure of seeing them this year, as I saw them open for Mayday Parade at History a few months back. Grayscale, out of Philadelphia, is: Collin Walsh (Vocals, Guitar), Andrew Kyne (Guitar), Dallas Molster (Guitar), Nick Veno (Drums), and Noah Christian (Bass). With 5 EPs and 4 studio albums, Grayscale has been a band since 2011 and has a dedicated following of their own. Their 9-song set played most directly into their 2025 release The Hart, but did pay tribute to their previous albums as well, with songs off Adornment, Nella Vita, and Umbra rounding out their 40-minute time slot.
Finally, it was time for the main act. As noted previously, I have a very deep fondness for this band. Our Last Night, formed by brothers Trevor and Matt Wentworth (Lead Vocals and Guitar/Vocals respectively), and Tim Molloy (Drums), in 2004, adding touring Bassist Sean Everett more recently to fulfill that empty role as of 2023. Most well-known for their playful covers of everything from popular pop songs to Disney classics and almost everything in between, they also have a deep collection of original songs. This tour, The Final Tour, is not the end of the band, but rather them deciding to prioritize their family lives over the constant touring requirements. For the vast majority of their careers, they have been entirely self-managed, deciding to produce and release their music without the use of a label or management team. This has allowed them much more freedom with their music than some other groups experience. They have released 12 full-length albums over the course of their career. This tour paid homage to their entire repertoire of releases. At 20 songs, their set list covered some of their most loved covers: “Hot Girl Bummer” (blackbear), “Stay” (The Kid Laroi/Justin Bieber), and “Iris” (Goo Goo Dolls), all mixed together with a selection of originals like “White Tiger”, “Escape”, and of course, “Sunrise”.
While I cannot suggest you go and see this band live anymore, I would absolutely suggest that everyone go and check them out on their streaming service of choice. Our Last Night might not be touring anymore, but their music will continue its regular circulation on my daily playlists for certain.
