UPSAHL | Atlanta

Straight out of Phoenix, it’s Lady Jesus! Beloved artist, UPSAHL, spent her Friday night at a sold out show at Vinyl, an iconic venue in the heart and soul of Atlanta. The 23-year-old Arizona-native is as fun and welcoming on stage, as she is off stage. With support from KiNG MALA, Unclear had the absolute pleasure of getting to see the rising artist live. 

“Lady Jesus” opens the show with the infamous beats at the beginning of the track. Fans are screaming at the top of their lungs as UPSAHL takes the stage. Dressed like a rockstar in a mixture of a red undershirt and an off-white jumpsuit with buckles, the TikTok icon is rocking the house. With back-to-back performances of: “Time Of My Life,” “People I Don’t Like,” and “Monica Lewinsky,” UPSAHL is here to kick ass and take names. The set has quickly unwinded, her guitarists and other band members are giving a performance of a lifetime as UPSAHL’s unreleased track “Into My Body,” plays. 

Now, don’t fret. UPSAHL performed fan favorites like, “Money on My Mind” and “Douchebag.” The venue is full from the front of the venue to the back. The squeaky ceiling fans are circulating more than just warm air, they’re circulating an energy that’s pumping up UPSAHL fans. After giving Atlanta a warm welcome, UPSAHL continues to weave through her set with: “Thriving,” and “IDFWFEELINGS.” Not soon after, fans are hearing UPSAHL’s latest release “Antsy,” an ode to figuring yourself out in a fury of confusion and instability. “Young Life Crisis,” from UPSAHL’s 2020 EP of the same name, warms everyone up again. 

The highlight of the night rests with her cover of “3 Nights” by Dominic Fike. The laid-back version of this track has fans screaming for more as she slides into “Notorious.” The head-banging anthem rips through Vinyl while hands are in the air. The show ends with “Last Supper” and “Sad Sorry After Party,” and Atlanta fans are chanting for more. “Encore! Upsahl! Encore!” echoes through the space and UPSAHL’s band takes the stage one more time. “Atlanta,” UPSAHL coos. “We’re not done with you yet.” And then… “12345SEX” starts and it’s like the party never stopped. With amazing performances of, “Lunatic,” and “Drugs,” it’s evident that this life was made for UPSAHL.

Remi Wolf | Atlanta

Live from Atlanta, GA… it’s Remi Wolf! The 14th show of the Gwingle Gwongle Tour kicks off at the Eastern, a popular venue in the heart of Atlanta. With support from Orion Sun, the 26-year-old singer/songwriter was ready to rock the stage. Remi Wolf’s set includes a cartoony-looking tree that further supports Wolf’s carefree and warm energy.

“Quiet on Set” begins and the crowd erupts. An opening track that could energize any venue, Remi Wolf is jumping around on stage at her sold out show. “When I’m fresh out of ideas again,” Wolf saunters across the stage as she sings “Sauce,” from her EP, You’re a Dog. The 4-minute song showcases the artist’s stage presence as the track weaves through the venue. Wolf pumps up the crowd with “wyd,” the 8th track on her deluxe album, Juno. Named after her dog, the 19-track album has been praised for its originality and continues to showcase Wolf’s vocal range. 

“Atlanta,” Remi Wolf croons. “I haven’t been back here since Music Midtown [in 2019].” The crowd starts cheering for the California-native. “I see some familiar faces,” she smiles and waves to a few people in the crowd. With performances of “Volkiano,” “Liquor Store,” and “Liz,” Remi Wolf’s Gwingle Gwongle Tour is one for the books. “Okay, so I have a few rules for my show,” Wolf begins and the crowd is buzzing. “Rule number one: sing every f**king lyric as loud as you can!” Hands are in the air and fans are showing their support for Wolf. She continues: 

“Rule number two: find your hip hinges and find in your heart to wiggle them from side to side.

Rule number three: You’re gonna have to kiss your neighbor hard right now. 

And rule number four: we’re gonna have a f**king good time!” 

“Sexy Villain” rocks through the Eastern as fans sing along to one of Wolf’s popular tracks. Much like her live performance of “Pink + White” at The Electric Lady, Wolf embodies this Frank Ocean cover once again. With pink hues warming the stage, Wolf’s silhouette is illuminated for this 3-minute track. The show courses through some of Wolf’s popular tracks like, “Anthony Kiedis,” “Michael,” and “Woo!” 

Suddenly, a rhythmic guitar strum runs through the venue and as the song rises to its intro, fans are already jumping for “Photo ID,” one of Wolf’s most popular songs comes from her 2020 EP, I’m Allergic to Dogs. Wolf ends the show with a notable encore. Not only does she perform, “Disco Man,” the final track of her 2020 EP, but, there’s a moment where the crowd participates in reciting positive affirmations. 

Remi Wolf’s Gwingle Gwongle Tour is still in action, but with very few tickets available. You can catch Remi Wolf’s performance of “Liz,” on The Tonight Show this Monday, October 10th. If you can’t get enough of all things Remi Wolf, you can find her on Instagram and Twitter (@remiwolf). Wolf’s discography is available where you stream music!
