D4vd – Music Hall of Williamsburg – July 8, 2023

After making a name for himself with Fortnite videos and TikTok, precocious teen D4vd — born in Queens, raised in Houston — dropped his first EP, the pop- and R&B-filled Petals to Thorns, about six weeks ago. And on Saturday night at Music Hall of Williamsburg, he put on his first of three local shows.

Jessie Ware – Terminal 5 – October 21, 2023

Jessie Ware burst onto the scene briefly with a 2011 collab single with Sampha and then in a more profound way when her first full-length, Devotion, arrived a year later. “The South London singer Jessie Ware is a devout realist making the most of her pop-star dreams,” raves Pitchfork. “Her commitment to both sides of that equation is what turns her debut album into a uniquely soulful master class.” This past April, more than a decade later, she delivered another stunner with That! Feels Good!. “A true, forward-facing pop visionary,” says NME. “Ware’s finest album of her career is a transformative experience, an outlandishly good record that allows her to let loose.” And with her North American tour winding down, the disco-pop star (and podcast host) let loose at a sold-out Terminal 5 on Saturday night.
