Indie-pop powerhouse CHVRCHES lit up the BBC R1 Stage tonight as they delivered a performance which was one to remember. With a setlist brimming with indietronica anthems, CHVRCHES proved to us again their iconic status is well-deserved.
Frontwoman Lauren Mayberry is mesmerising as she gives us her incredible, powerful vocals at the same time as she twirls majestically around the stage. A brief pit stop to tie her laces and she’s off again – the purple glitter on her face giving us life.
Tracks like opener ‘Get Out’ and smash hits ‘We Sink’ and ‘Recover’ absolutely go off, with the crowd transfixed by their impressive light show, but not enough to keep them from dancing to banger after banger.
CHVRCHES are certainly a band here for the ages. I hope you were lucky enough to catch their spectacular set tonight. If you weren’t, you’re going to have big regrets tomorrow morning.
