Imagine Dragons are excited about their new concert film, "Imagine Dragons: Live From the Hollywood Bowl." The film, featuring the LA Film Orchestra, will be shown in theaters on March 26 and 29. It's even more special because it follows the band's song "Children of the Sky," which was sent to the moon on a space mission. "Children of the Sky" was co-written by the band for the video game Starfield. It was launched to the moon on a ship called Athena. Despite some landing issues, the song was eventually beamed back to Earth a day later, making it the first song to be transmitted back in this way. Guitarist Wayne Sermon shared his excitement about the moon mission. He followed the event online and found it surreal to have their music involved in space exploration. He joked that he hasn’t used this achievement in conversation yet, but looks forward to sharing it. The concert film captures a show the band performed at the Hollywood Bowl in October 2024. They collaborated with composer Inon Zur to create the orchestral arrangements. The idea grew as they planned their performance, ultimately leading to a full live orchestral experience. One standout moment in the concert is the song "Radioactive," where violin and cello players had a duel. Another highlight was “Children of the Sky,” which had never been played live with an orchestra before. Their collaboration with Zur made it a memorable experience. Initially, the concert wasn't meant to be filmed. However, after considering how many fans would want to see it, the band decided to document it. They quickly arranged for cameras to capture the performance. The film is directed by Vincent Adam Paul and will be available in multiple formats, including 4DX. Sermon plans to watch it in theaters, believing it will eventually be available for streaming. Imagine Dragons will continue their Loom World Tour on April 4 in China and then move to Europe on May 27 in Italy. They are also working on a new album, exploring different ideas for their music.
