On October 26 2025, Magdalena Bay, supported by Oxis, concluded the North American leg of their Imaginal Mystery tour at The Fillmore in Philadelphia, taking fans on one last journey through the world of the Imaginal Disk and the Mercurial World.

Beginning the night, Los Angeles-based Oxis opened to an already packed room, bringing the crowd to life with her aquatic and marine-inspired setlist. Oxis’ set included some of her top songs, including “Flounder”, “Fry”, and “Baqui”, as well as a cover of MGMT’s “Kids”. Although Oxis’ set was short, it was the perfect balance to introduce Magdalena Bay to the stage.

Miami native, LA based duo Magdalena Bay, consisting of Mica Tenenbaum and Matthew Lewin, know how to make a room shine right from the start. Beginning the night with "She Looked Like Me!”, the opening line, “Hello…” sent shockwaves through the crowd, immediately causing everyone in the room to erupt into the most excited, mystical cheers. Mica serenaded the crowd with tracks from Imaginal Disk, Mercurial World, and Mini Mix vol. 3, and was all smiles the entirety of the night, feeling welcomed to Philly with open arms.

Magdalena Bay’s stage arrangement was gorgeously theatrical. Imaginal Disk and Mercurial World themed props, keyboard stands, light panels, and even a fully-functional staircase made me feel truly immersed in the world of the Imaginal Mystery. This show was the most exciting, energetic, and dazzling production I have seen to date.

This set was jam packed with a unique and magical energy. Throughout the show, Magdalena Bay performed many fan favorites, including “Image”, “Top Dog”, and “Death and Romance”, to name a few, while incorporating wardrobe changes into Mica’s most recognizable fits, including her Imaginal Disk blue jumpsuit, flower collar, and angel wings.

The final stop on the Imaginal Mystery tour was an unforgettable experience. While this leg of the Imaginal Mystery tour is over, I will always recommend getting a ticket to one of their shows. 

Magdalena Bay will be back on the road in the UK and Europe starting in February 2026, so be sure to catch them on the road if you can.
