A Millennial’s Dream would be the best way to describe the Hilary Duff concert experience. Arriving at the show, the crowd was full of superfans dressed in classic 90’s looks and costumed characters spanning Duff’s film and TV career. In a way, the show felt like a reunion (and I’m not just saying that, as I know the majority of the ladies I've known throughout my life were in attendance). Welcoming us to a cosy, pink-carpeted stage, filled with comforting neon glows, cityscapes, and sparkles, Hilary took the stage to the eager screams of fans awaiting her return to the spotlight. Even though this Lucky Me tour highlighted her return to music in support of her latest album, Hilary did not leave out the songs that we all know and love from our childhoods. There was something extremely comforting about this show that I haven’t felt in a while. Between the clips of Hilary highlighting her family and snippets of her growing up on TV, her kids running out to hug her at the end of the set, and the Citywide and vintage Aaron Carter t-shirt. The show just felt like a warm hug, reminding us of the better times of the 90’s/early 00’s

For the first time since 2022, Tame Impala returned to Philly’s Xfinity Mobile Arena on July 11th 2026. Taking up 2 stages in the centre of the arena, the massive room was packed and full of one of the best light, laser, and strobe shows I’ve ever witnessed. Opening the show was none other than the star from the “Loser” music video, Joe Keery (aka Djo). Coming off his worldwide tour over the last year in support of his latest album. The Tame Impala setlist did not disappoint for fans new and old; there was a bit of everything. Including some fun bits like the solo B stage set by Kevin. Encased with a single overhead light at times that seemed like an alien abduction in a living room, Kevin performed “Ethereal Connection” and “Not My World”. There was also a brief intermission where the camera followed Kevin off stage, then backstage to take a leak (yes, he did wash his hands) before returning to perform the remainder of the set.

Holly Humberstone brought her Cruel World tour to Philly on June 9th 2026. The room filled with anxious fans looking forward to seeing Holly live, after it being a bit of time since she last toured in Philly. The front row crowd was a precious collection of die hard fans, including some who donned some Holly tattoos. Holly took the stage with a huge smile on her face the whole night. As someone who has listened to Holly since the her first EP came out in 2020, and got to see her for the first time tonight the setlist did not disappoint.

Alec Duckart (otherwise known as Searows) is currently touring the US in support of his second album, Death in the Business of Whaling. The band made a stop in Philly on May 8th, for their largest Philly show to date at the dreamy Union Transfer, the perfect venue to capture Searows’ atmospheric sound and necessary cozy lighting to go along with it. The crowd was super respectful and quiet as they soaked in the perfect performance. Jordan Patterson opened the show.

Lewis Capaldi returns to the US stage with a kick off show for his tour in Philadelphia on April 15th 2026. After taking a few years off, Capaldi returned the middle of last year with some new tracks like the fitting “Survive”. All cumulating to his latest EP, Survive, which was released last week around this tour. As if he never took any time off, Capaldi regaled the crowd with his usual banter and reassured them he was excited to be back. Although his voice wasn’t 100% the crowd could was just grateful to be back in the room with Lewis after all this time. The enchanting Joy Crookes joined Lewis opening the show.
