From beginning to end, Clairo’s ‘Charm’ Tour is a showcase of intimacy – set against a warm, dimly lit room, the night begins with the songstress and her band quietly gathering on stage and sharing a glass of wine while Wendy Renes' “After Laughter” plays in the background. Her opening song, “Nomad,” off of her latest album Charm, sets the tone for the evening with soft chords and a jazzy undertone that brings the crowd to their feet.
Clairo’s magic comes from her ability to captivate crowds while maintaining a sense of vulnerability that makes her performances feel personal. As she journeyed through her discography – her power to enchant audiences shined through – from bedroom-pop hit “Bags” to sultry, jazz club melody “Sexy to Someone”. Each song was an introspective reflection of her career thus far. Making her way to the end of the evening, Clairo invited the crowd to join in as she began the last song of the evening, “Juna”. As the crowd swayed and sang along, the connection amongst the audience embodied the warmth Clairo brings to her performances.
