Malcolm Todd’s Do That Again Tour lands in Houston on September 3 — 713 Music Hall, 8 p.m. — one night after the tour’s Irving opener. For an artist who had never played a live show three years ago, booking a 5,000-capacity amphitheater on the second night of a national run says something. What it says: the past year happened fast.
About Malcolm Todd
Todd is a Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter who first appeared in 2022 with Demos Before Prom, an EP that introduced a voice built for close listening — soulful, soft at the edges, with an R&B warmth that reads better in a dark room than through a phone speaker. The trajectory since has been steep. He moved 100,000 tickets across three continents in the past year, earned RIAA Platinum certifications on “Earrings,” “Roommates,” and “Chest Pain (I Love),” and joined Don Toliver on stage at Madison Square Garden after “Chest Pain” found a new wave of listeners through Toliver’s “E85.” Getting absorbed into Toliver’s audience matters — it signals where Todd sits in the current pop-R&B ecosystem: cross-genre, and ascending.
His new album Do That Again arrived June 5 via Columbia Records. All 13 tracks charted on U.S. Spotify in the same week; the project hit No. 5 on Apple Music’s Top 200 Albums. The press response landed cleanly: Rolling Stone called him “a rising star with a sweet, lilting voice and knack for intimate popcraft”; the LA Times said the album “channels a more mature Malcolm”; Interview Magazine went direct: “Gen Z’s next pop star.” Before the tour kicked off, he played Osheaga in August and Outside Lands the following weekend. The 29-date run includes Radio City Music Hall, Greek Theatre, The Anthem, and the Salt Shed. Houston is stop two.
About 713 Music Hall
713 Music Hall sits at 401 Franklin St in downtown Houston — a 5,000-capacity amphitheater and one of the larger club-level rooms in the market. Todd is at the growing-into-it stage of his career right now, which makes this Houston date worth catching before the next escalation. The room has the capacity; the question the early tour dates will answer is whether the crowds do too.
