Justin Bieber joined a 2021 Instagram live stream from Anees Mokhiber, which caused a major uptick in listeners. At the time, the then-28-year-old was performing “Slip,” a love letter to his wife, which would soon accumulate over 18 million plays on Spotify.

Since then, he has maintained crisp beats and an affinity for the acoustic guitar. Both are heavily included on his new album summer camp. Especially if Bieber approves, it won’t be a shock if Anees scores a major hit in the next few years, and performs at, say, Jingle Ball, but in the meantime, Jannus Live is the place to be. Michael Minnelli—of no relation to Liza—opens.

Tickets to see Anees Mokhiber play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg on Friday, June 9 are still available and start at $25.
