Last night at Manchester’s Band On The Wall, Leith Ross and their four-piece band took the stage as apart of their “I Can See The Future” UK and EU tour. The Canadian singer-songwriter brings their most recent 2025 album on tour with support from artist Katie Gregson Macleod, and they simultaneously created the indie and emotional atmosphere of dreams.

Based in Inverness, Scotland, Katie is back on the road for her second tour alongside her friend, Leith. This follows her own successful headline run across the UK and Europe in support of her latest EP, Love Me Too Well, I’ll Retire Early. Walking straight through the crowd and on to the stage, the singer-songwriter shared the news that, as of that very morning, she had officially finished recording her debut album.

After watching Katie’s performance through a side-stage window, Leith surprised the crowd by jumping on stage. The duo closed things out with a high-energy performance of Katie’s viral hit, ‘Teenage Love’.

Leith Ross then took the stage, delivering a set that balanced tracks from their current album cycle with a handful of older favourites. Performing some songs exactly as recorded while others creatively disguising them with entirely new live arrangements. Between songs, Leith took time taking the time to elaborate and explain the inspiration and meaning of each piece of music.

Finally, Leith closed the show with their two most iconic, hard-hitting tracks: ‘(You) On My Arm‘ and ‘We’ll Never Have Sex.‘ In a poignant shift, the band slipped away, leaving Leith alone under the lights to perform their final lyrics entirely independently and acoustically as a way to directly connect with the crowd.
