Review: LINDSEY STIRLING’S DUALITY TOUR at Acrisure Amphitheater
by Brian Hilbrand - Aug 22, 2026
We were fortunate to attend the second-to-last stop on Lindsey Stirling’s Duality Tour, after her most recent album of the same name. This concert came at the right time for me personally, as I had gotten some rough news earlier in the day, that was very unexpected, and had debated attending the show, but was so very glad we did as she sang a song dedicated to her father, and best friend who had passed away saying she believes they are watching and with her both on stage and every day, and reminded us of that, very hard to hear at that point, but a very good reminder. But it was also a reminder to spend time with people and do as much as you can with them, because you never know what might happen or when. I have long believed music is healing, therapeutic, and definitely speaks to us. So, a night of therapeutic music with Lindsey was here at the right time.
