The Crush

Beautiful Venue EZ Parking across the street at 225 Broadway circle Great Staff very enjoyable evening

Everything Everything is a little-known British band, but I get the feeling they're going to blow up, and It's incredible to be on the front lines of that. With four albums in seven years (and two of those in the past two years), they're pushing hard to hone their craft and make it big. Following a British tour, they played five shows in the U.S., so we flew down to L.A. from Seattle to see them. They're that good. Before I really get into them, I need to mention the openers. The first opener, with no merch and not listed on the ticket info, was a young woman named Teischa. Originally from Perth, Australia, she was on a world-wide bender of shows. And she was incredible. I am not usually a fan of female singers to be completely honest -- even those whose vocal chops I recognize, I don't often find any female voices that actually resonate with me. Teischa did. Her voice was haunting and soulful, and she filled up the stage by herself, transferring between playing piano and guitar. She wowed me with perhaps one of the greatest lyrics I've ever heard: "I'm not broken, but I'm not okay." Gurl. I mention the next opener for the opposite reasons. Hailing from L.A., The Palms were basically a boring L.A. band. They weren't untalented by any means, but especially compared to Teischa and Everything Everything, seemed to have no soul. I honestly just found it an odd pick from such an artistically magnificent band, but perhaps the Brits were not in charge of the opening acts. As for the Brits themselves, I honestly was too enthralled with their performance to be able to critique anything. I know they played my two favorite songs -- Kemosabe and Distant Past -- but I couldn't be bothered to remember the rest of the set list. Their energy filled the room to the point that the actual songs might not have even mattered. (It helped that the venue was extraordinarily set up with great acoustics and just the right amount of filled.) I have generally have a lot of anxiety at shows (will they play my favorite song?? How much longer will they play for?? What if I have to pee??) but Everything Everything entranced me in a way that all those things didn't matter. In fact, I did have to pee, and I don't feel like that interrupted my experience in the least. I came out of that bathroom dancing already. After the show, the band immediately came out and was incredibly nice and loving to all their fans. Alex met them, and was pretty overwhelmed by his emotions. 10/10 would travel to see them again. I wanna be there when they blow up. As a side note, if you haven't heard this band's music, would highly recommend. It is truly indescribable.

The Best Concert Ever so worth the 4 hour drive to see them in Boston.... Was right in the front row standing behind a speaker.... AMAZING TIME.... Meet & Greet so worth the $$. They sang 2 songs before the show for the Meet & Greet.

Wow! What a performance this guy puts on at his show. Vocals so pure and the guy plays the harp, which is pretty awesome in my book. So much energy and a great show that I would recommend to any and all of my friends. You will not be disappointed by this performance.

Smash Productions!!! From start to finish, everything was perfect! The All White All Night event on 5/23 was a great way to start the weekend. Shawn & Terrell both made me feel like I was with family the entire time. Sunday night's concert was absolutely INCREDIBLE! The pre concert meet & greet introduced some talented local artists, a DJ with lots of energy, a very nice cash bar & the chance to meet Dwele & take pictures with him. The concert was amazing! Thanks to SMASH PRODUCTIONS, myself & 4 other people went backstage to meet & thank the band & the artist (Marsha Ambrosius) for the best show of 2015, so far. I would recommend this venue. I suggest you attend the next SMASH PRODUCTIONS event!

I loved getting to see Lianne La Havas; she is even better to see in person, beautiful, and humble. I was amazed to see her since her voice so great and I am one of biggest fans! Royale is definitely a spacious and nice venue, as well.

They have amazing vocals, skill & talent on several instruments. Sound was exceptional!

My husband, my children and I had acgreat time. Bands were awesome, great venue, beautiful evening. Will go again for sure. Love hearing the older music.

BARBARA MASON KILLED IT LOVED HER..AND SANGRIA WAS OFF HOOK..ONLY THING DISSAPOINTED ME WAS BRENTON WOOD STARTED OFF STRONG AND THEN STARTED SINGIN OTHER PEEPS SONGS>>HE HAS TO MANY HITS FOR THAT. DRAMATICS WERE ALSO NICE >>ALL IN ALL HAD A GREAT TIME WITH THE GIRLZ>>> AND GOT SOME GREAT PICS>>

The show was hands down amazing. I loved watching Bryce Vine perform and have fun on stage, and I love the music itself, but the audience was awful. People were being rude and inconsiderate of others the entire time. A group of guys came to the concert plastered and more drunk than necessary and kept shoving people, spitting on the floor, and trying to kiss random girls. Despite trying to dodge those people, the concert was overall fantastic.
