The excitement was palpable as fans lined up outside the Moody Theater in Austin, TX, on July 16th for AB6IX’s highly anticipated fan concert. Known since their debut in 2019 for their captivating performances and charming personalities, the members of AB6IX did not disappoint, delivering an unforgettable evening filled with music, dance, and heartfelt interactions.
The concert began with an electrifying performance of their b-side “TRAVELER” followed by the title track “GRAB ME” from their newest EP, “THE FUTURE IS OURS : FOUND.” The setlist included fan favorites like “RED UP,” “WHISTLE,” and their popular release, “THE ANSWER.” AB6IX fans, also known as ABNEW, cheered with excitement as they heard the group’s newest songs live for the first time.
Before the show, The B.E.L.U Lineup had the incredible opportunity to ask the members of AB6IX, Woong, Donghyun, Woojin, and Daehwi about their latest release and their life on tour so far. Donghyun shared that they had already completed six stops on the “Find YOU Fan Concert 2024” tour in North America, and it felt like time was passing by really fast, but they were determined to give their best performance in Austin. When asked about their favorite song, Daehwi expressed that their latest title track, "GRAB ME," was his personal favorite, as he felt it truly represented their group. Woong, on the other hand, favored "ALL NIGHT" because it’s not their typical sound and has a unique, "sexy" vibe.

The fans in Austin were vocal about their excitement and admiration for AB6IX. Many ABNEW were either seeing their favorite group for the first time or attending another show, because, let's be honest, one show was simply not enough to fully experience AB6IX’s talent.As the show came to an end, a fan presented Donghyun with a Texas flag signed by many of the attendees. All the members admired this thoughtful fan project, making it the perfect way to close out a show in the capital of Texas!

The AB6IX fan concert in Austin was a testament to the group’s hard work and dedication to their craft and to their fans. Their performance, combined with their genuine connection to ABNEW, made for a night that will be remembered for years to come. The “Find YOU Fan Concert 2024,” was a success, and we are eager to see what projects and releases AB6IX has planned for the second half of 2024!
