★★★★★ Caroline Polachek live is transcendent and flawless - the fairy queen of pop ✒️ _emilybootle
The stage was lit with different coloured sunsets – which inspired her song “Sunset”, about resolution – with a volcano giving off Middle Earth vibes in the background. Polachek’s look is mythical – elfin and nymph-like – but any sense of olden-days fairy-land was balanced out by the music, which is so modern, fresh and haunting it gives you almost permanent goosebumps.
But the immersiveness and originality of the music was only half the show: Polachek is a captivating performer with a physicality that means you can’t take your eyes off her. She danced, strode and wiggled round the stage, a hip flick here, an arm above the head there. All of this was – as with her music – undertaken with the utmost precision.
Polachek is the kind of artist who might one day come to define an era: as soon as you have heard of her, you can’t believe you hadn’t before. She closed, pre-encore, with the transcendent, joyful 2019 hit “So Hot You’re Hurting My Feelings” – the room lit Valentine’s red, the crowd eating from the palm of her hand.
