The song is pretty self-explanatory, but with lyrics like “I’m just the opener, yeah that’s what I am/And I just came to sing, maybe make a new fan/I know that you don’t care, yeah I know where I stand/But I appreciate the love, would you give me a chance,” it showed how genuine of a guy he was.

It’s rare that opening acts at concerts turn me into a fan, but something about Quill caught my attention, and I was assured of this later in his set when he performed one of the most self-aware songs I’ve ever heard called “The Opener.” Way before Vine touched the stage, his opening act was hip-hop artist Kid Quill, who was joined by his impressive trumpet-playing band mate Connor, someone I’ve never heard of before, but by the time I got to my car I was searching his entire discography on Apple Music. But after a few hours in the barely lit packed venue, I left a huge fan of not only Vine, but his opening act as well. Going into the show, I honestly had little to no expectations. The New York-based rapper/indie-pop artist was nothing but a ball of energy as he performed to a sold-out crowd at Skully’s Music-Diner on Tuesday night.

If I could sum up a Bryce Vine show in one word, it’d simply be energy. Bryce Vine performed to a sold out crowd at Skully’s Music Diner in Columbus on Tuesday night.
