CONCERT IMAGINE DRAGONS - LOOM WORLD TOUR IN SINGAPORE Singapore Indoor Stadium Nov 25

It has been six years since Imagine Dragons performed in Singapore and their absence has been keenly felt.

Some 10,000 fans attended the American pop-rock band's sold-out show, their fourth in the Lion City.

The Las Vegas-based quartet, formed in 2008, previously rocked the Singapore Indoor Stadium in 2015 and 2018, during their Smoke + Mirrors and Evolve tours respectively. In 2016, they also played the Padang Stage at the Formula One Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix.

Imagine Dragons' time away was noted by lead singer Dan Reynolds, who said during the 100-minute show: "It has been too long, Singapore."

Thankfully, some things never change. The band's adrenaline-pumping early hits such as Thunder and Believer made the set list and received some of the loudest cheers.

Reynolds also prompted several screams when he removed his white singlet after the fourth song, and continued to perform topless for the rest of the electrifying show.
