Leon Bridges Perform ‘Kevin’ at the 2015 American Music Awards crooner Ed Sheeran, and listen to him passionately talk about marriage equality before emotionally rapping “Same Love” to an agreeing, screaming crowd of 5,000 people.

In a slower, stripped down portion of the evening, Lewis and most of the band left the stage to hear Macklemore perform “Growing Up,” a track he wrote with U.K. One highlight of the night was hearing Macklemore talk about his young daughter, Sloane, like the proud dad he is. They immediately launched into “Thrift Shop,” which left the crowd on its feet the entire night.Ī new addition to the crowded stage were three hip-hop dancers who appeared for about half the show. After starting off with the slower “Ten Thousand Hours,” Macklemore and Lewis thanked the crowd for selling out their first night on tour and for sticking with them after being in the studio for over a year.
