Mýa concert chronology

The Moodring Tour was the second concert tour by American recording artist Mýa. Visiting venues across North America, the tour supported the singer's third studio album, Moodring (2003). A 24-day nationwide outing, the tour commenced on October 11, 2003 and concluded on November 10, 2003. It featured then up and coming R&B singer Javier Colon and Swedish DJ duo Snook as the tour's opening acts. An intimate affair, the tour received generally mixed to positive reviews.

Background and development

By 2001, Harrison had amassed nine Top 10 hits and sold six million albums worldwide.[1] After years of touring festivals and opening for other artists, she embarked on her first headlining concert tour the Fear of Flying Tour (2001).[2] In July 2003, she released Moodring, her third studio album to favorable reviews from music critics and garnered her biggest first week sales yet.[3][4] Less than two months after its release, Moodring was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. Upon the album's release, the singer was set to join either R.Kelly or Mariah Carey's tours — or both — for "a few, maybe 10 dates" in the coming weeks, due to tour overseas in September, and originally one of the first featured names mentioned for the Verizon Ladies First Tour, however nothing ever materialized. Mya did however, opened for Brian McKnight on a few select dates in September.[5] Along with those prior obligations, the singer planned ahead and began auditioning dancers and getting a band together for her own U.S. tour down the line — a House of Blues/small theater-sized trek which eventually resulted into the Moodring Tour.[6][7]

Concert synopsis

The concert in Atlantic City, the singer made her "casino debut" and performed a 55 minute set for her audience at Mixx, a dance club in Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa.[8] Backed by a five piece band — a drummer, a bassist, two keyboardists, and a guitarist, two backup singers, and six dancers to accompany her, she designed her show to spotlight songs from her first two albums Mya (1998) and Fear of Flying (2000) at the beginning and material from her third album Moodring a little later.[8] During her performance, the singer's hair was braided and long and she made only one costume change, going from black in the beginning to red and white by the middle of the concert.[8]

The concert began on an appropriate upbeat note with one of her biggest hits, "Case of the Ex."[8] Known as a dancer before she was a singer, Mya danced so hard early in the show that one of her big, gold earrings was missing by the third song.[8] When it came time for Mya to start singing songs from Moodring, staff writer Vincent Jackson of The Press of Atlantic City opined,"the band did a good job recreating her heavily produced album sounds" and expressed admiration for her concert rendition of "Fallen" with the remark, "it showed how well she sings live, better than some of her entertainment contemporaries."[8][9] Throughout the duration of her concert, Jackson took noticed of how the singer was "a little saucy" in keeping with the more sexual nature of her newer music.[9] While performing "It's All About Me," the singer took the opportunity to pluck a guy from the audience and onto the stage, danced all around him, sat on his lap, and fed him strawberries covered in whip cream.[9] She ended her show strongly with a funkier version of one of her earlier hits, "Free," than the recorded rendition.[9] The concert concluded with "My Love Is Like...Wo," which veered into a reggae groove and what sounded like a hip hop remix before coming to a close.[9]

Critical reception

For the most part, the tour received generally mixed to positive reviews. In a positive review, Jami Gordillo-Kerby of The Fresno Bee revered the singer's concert at The Big Fresno Fair.[10] A colorfully staged performance with elaborated choreography and the firepower of an arena rock sound system, right away the journalist took noticed of how "the singer kept the upper hand," commenting "She was cool, confident and totally in control."[10] On top of that, she applauded the singer's prowess as a performer to continuously to "engaged with her fans during her entire performance" and was in awe by how "the attention stayed on the confident diva who prowled the stage like she owned it," sharing — "She lit up the place with her exuberance and singing and dancing skills."[10] She concluded her review on this sentiment, "Mya proved repeatedly in her Fresno concert that she has the voice to be a major force in R&B for years to come."[10] Reviewing for The Press of Atlantic City, staff writer Vincent Jackson awarded her concert in Atlantic City a positive review as well. He was most impressed by "how well the singer sings live" and "better than some of her entertainment contemporaries." He concluded his review commenting, "She's clearly an entertainer whose star is on the rise."[9] In a mixed review of her concert at the House of Blues in New York, Kelefa Sanneh of the New York Times opined, “As a singer, Mýa is a great dancer, and that’s nothing to be ashamed.” Commenting on the singer's singing, Sanneh concur, "O.K., her sense of pitch sometimes wandered, and it's clear that vocal improvisation isn't her strong suit." However, she noted “the music sounded best when the beats were loudest" and "her vigorous, loose-limbed movements are reflected in her music, which is sprightly, sexy and theatrical."[11]
