Brandon Flowers Covers Oasis With His Son at Salt Lake City Concert

Brandon Flowers brought a unique family moment to his recent live performance in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he shared the stage with his son, Henry. At the Red Butte Garden venue on September 11, 2026, the frontman of The Killers surprised fans by performing an acoustic rendition of Oasis’s iconic track "Don’t Look Back in Anger," with Henry accompanying him on guitar. This collaboration added a personal dimension to the evening’s setlist, which spanned Flowers’ diverse solo career as well as his work with The Killers.

The concert featured a 20-song lineup that showcased material from Flowers’ latest project, "THRASHER," a country and western-inspired album released in 2026. Opening the night, Flowers introduced audiences to "The Red Ground," setting the tone for a performance that leaned heavily on his recent compositions. In total, eight songs from "THRASHER" were played, including singles like "Plans," "Paradise," and "Tiger’s Blood," highlighting the new musical direction Flowers has been exploring.

In addition to new material, Flowers incorporated selections from his previous solo albums, "Flamingo" (2010) and "The Desired Effect" (2015). Tracks such as "Crossfire," "Only the Young," and "Can’t Deny My Love" demonstrated his evolving songwriting while maintaining the melodic appeal that has characterized his solo work.

Acknowledging his roots and fan expectations, Flowers also performed several songs from The Killers’ repertoire. Among these were energizing renditions of "Mr. Brightside" and "In the Car Outside," both crowd favorites that underscore his legacy as the band’s lead vocalist. The encore continued this blend of old and new, featuring "In Another Life" and "Read My Mind," followed by "An American Dream," the closing track from "THRASHER," which served as a poignant finale for the evening.

This Salt Lake City show is part of Flowers’ ongoing "THRASHER Tour," which extends through October 2026 and includes dates across the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Following the Utah performance, the tour moved to Denver, Colorado, with a stop scheduled at the Ogden Theatre on September 12. Other notable venues on the itinerary include Los Angeles’ Ford Theatre, Brooklyn Paramount in New York, and London’s Royal Albert Hall.

The inclusion of Henry Flowers on stage marks a rare and intimate moment during the tour, offering fans a glimpse of the frontman’s personal life intersecting with his professional career. Such collaborations between established artists and their children are often met with enthusiasm, providing a fresh dynamic to live shows.

While the concert predominantly highlighted Flowers’ solo efforts, the nod to Oasis through "Don’t Look Back in Anger" brought an element of classic British rock nostalgia to the set. This choice resonated well given Oasis’s enduring influence on alternative and indie music scenes, and it reflected Flowers’ own musical inspirations.

Details about Henry Flowers’ musical background remain limited, but his confident performance alongside his father suggests a developing presence in the music world. The familial duet was captured in video footage shared online, further amplifying interest in this collaborative moment.

Brandon Flowers’ 2026 tour continues to weave together new artistic explorations with the familiar sounds that have defined his career. His ability to engage audiences through a mix of fresh material, beloved hits, and unexpected covers demonstrates the evolving nature of his live performances. As the tour progresses, fans can anticipate a similarly diverse and heartfelt setlist at upcoming stops domestically and internationally.
