Charli XCX

Charli XCX With: Elliphant and Femme, Trees - Dallas - October 2014 The fact that a smaller venue like Trees comfortably housed an already established artist such as Charli XCX, is a feat it itself. Charli XCX, known for her immensely popular collaborations with Iggy Azalea for "Fancy", and Icona Pop for "I Love It", along with her recent chart topper, "Boom Clap", featured on "The Fault in Our Stars" soundtrack, is a powerhouse writer, vocalist, and performer. At the age of 22, she has already released 4 EPs, an LP and her follow up LP, Sucker, is now available for pre-order, and been asked to write for artists like Britney Spears and Rita Ora. As for her performance, Charli is a true performer, style, poise, charm, lights, colors, all female backing band, enthusiasm, crowd interaction, and perhaps the most important quality of a good live performance, legitimate album quality live vocals. She can hit all the highs, lows, and change it up to keep it interesting. She is not an act that will disappoint. My praise for Charli's opening acts, Elliphant and Femme is equivalent to the headliner. They both really brought their own style, tones, and crowd warming up capabilities to their sets. Both openers met with fans after, took pictures, and signed merch until the end of the show. As always, the artists' merch staff were all really awesome. Cons: 1. The general staff and guards at Trees (venue), are not very nice and extremely strict, having no qualms about dragging kids from the front of the stage is they are seen drinking. 2. Charli has gotten a bit too popular to sign merch after shows. 3. A Long Island Iced Tea is going to cost you $10 from the bar. 3. The show started an hour late. 4. Elliphant's DJ messed up her set 3 times, he was starting to kill the mood, and that is not cool. 5. No re-entry into the venue once you leave, no exceptions. 5 stars for the concert from me.

Charli XCX is absolutely amazing. I am a huge fan of Charli and love all of her music but, as great as it is to listen to from a pair of headphones, it cannot compare to live. Charli XCX performing live can be described as stunning, breathtaking, beautiful, crazy, wild, and just perfect. I saw her perform on Tuesday October 7th at Webster Hall in Manhattan. The venue was great, small with an amazing sound system. The bass shook my whole body, as did the absolutely insane crowd jumping up and down, loving every second of Charli's spectacular performance.
One of my favorite parts of the concert was when Charli performed Fancy by herself. This was a surprise to me because I had not checked her setlist and assumed there would be no Fancy since Iggy wasn't there. Boy was I wrong! She performed it by herself, rapping Iggy's parts as well as singing hers. It was such an amazing surprise to see that as I never expected it. She rapped to it really well. I would rate the concert 10/10 and I will be making sure I attend every single Charli XCX concert I can from now on as they are such a wild experience that no one should miss out on. Go on, buy tickets now and see Charli live, it is more than worth it!

I recently saw Charli XCX for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. I knew very little about her before going to the show, and had no idea if I would love or hate it. I had only heard You (Ha Ha Ha) and her hit song, I Love It, which she did with Icona Pop.

So I went into it with high hopes. I wasn't disappointed. Her style of music reminded me of other quirky acts, such as Grimes and Brook Candy (who is featured on Charli XCX's album, True Romance), which is always a good thing. The show was enjoyable, and the crowd seemed to love her. It was the kind of crowd you would expect to find at the Coachella Music Festival.

It was diverse, but everyone seemed to be getting along. It was like an outdoors rave minus the ecstasy. There was a lot of writhing, swaying, and jumping about. Charli XCX's performance was very good, though I will admit that it didn't make me want to go running to itunes to buy her album. I enjoyed Nuclear Season and Black Roses, in particular, because I found them to be a bit weirder and more to my tastes than some of the other songs. Everyone went crazy during the last song, which was, unsurprisingly, You (Ha Ha Ha).

Charli XCX was fantastic! I saw her at Webster Hall and she brought the house down. There were cool balloons and handmade banners plastered all over the venue, which added a really personal touch.
Her band was all female! I was totally shocked but it makes me love her even more. The entire band was badass and added to the girl-power attitude. They all wore matching cheerleading uniforms and it was awesome. (They said "sucker" on them.)
The crowd was pretty good. There weren't a lot of young, squealing girls and boys; it was mostly people in their 20's.
Charli really engaged with her audience. She came really close to the front of the stage and sang to all of the fans. She caught bras and flowers thrown on the stage and basked in all of the love she was given. It was absolutely fantastic. Also, her relatives were there and it was adorable to see them dancing as she sang.
10/10 would recommend/see again! Totally a must!

If you think you have fallen in with music now, wait until you've seen it live! Seeing Charli XCX Live was the BEST night of my life she is such an amazing artist she really connects with all of her fans and is an artist worth spending your money on seeing!!! I have been a massive fan of her since her first album and she is amazing she has real talent NO auto tune needed for her, she has a punk energy which she puts into her music and performances and isnt like many other artists she isnt afraid to be crazy (in a good way) She inspires me loads and is a true angel. GET TICKETS TO SEE HER NOW!! I hope she comes back to brighton soon, shes fucking incredible <3

I was surprisingly impressed by Charli's gig in Sheffield this March! She has a powerful voice and so much energy when performing! Every song felt like a hit, even amongst well-known songs such as Boom Clap and I Love It. It was amazing to meet Charli after the show, she was so nice, appreciative and humble, she said she wasn't feeling very well that night but you wouldn't have been able to tell given the brilliant performance she put on!

Lights on stage were too bright and they made it not possible to enjoy the concert fully. There were moments when I had to have my eyes completely closed. I watched the show through my phone... Other than that Charli was full of energy and what I loved the most is that she was truly herself. I absolutely loved voguers that were on stage with her during Shake It.

Charli had an amazing act! She is so entertaining and she is really supportive to Halsey and PARTYNEXTDOOR since she was performing at Halsey’s Hopeless Fountain Kingdom Tour. She also went up to the people on the left side and high fived them! (The people right above the Floor Seats) I really suggest you go to the concert!

pretty good! played her biggest songs and it was pretty fun! given she was an opening act for halsey she only had 6ish songs but like i said they were all the ones everyone knew! compared to halsey though, her effects and videos being shown on the screen weren't as good, but who can compete with halsey!?

Charli was everything I expected her to bet yet she still somehow managed to exceed my high expectations. She literally broke the Terminal 5 glass ceiling. She slayed my mind, scalp me bald. Allie X being the opening act just made the show better since I stan her as well. 110% pure pop excellence!
