#Live UPSAHL No Trouble just Bubbles and Vibes at the El Club

What do you get when you mix dedicated fans with adult money and UPSAHL? Bubble guns and a party, we spent the night hanging out with some of our favorite fans as we danced it out with UPSAHL on her extended tour. We had the pleasure of meeting one fan following UPSAHL on her tour with a bag of refill bottles for her bubble gun. To our surprise, the variety of fans also piqued our interest, as many could have gone to the Blink-182 show but instead wanted new music in the making.

She started off the night with “People I Don’t Like” right off the back, an instant favorite that got many of the fans hooked, to begin with, before entering into “Melatonin” and “Skin Crawl.” Running around the stage and getting into the fan’s faces and their phones made most of the fan’s night. We weren’t ready to hear “Stressed” live, but it happened, and we couldn’t stop singing along with the fans. The overall mood was a vibe, and we couldn’t have it any other way.

UPCOMING TOUR DATES

May 11- Indianapolis, IN - HiFi Annex

June 16 - Bergen, Norway - Bergenfest 2023

June 18 Landgraaf, Netherlands - Pinkpop 2023 

June 20 - Morrison, CO - Red Rocks (Opening for Oliver Tree) 

The Phoenix native’s past live performances have received tremendous applause from outlets including Consequence of Sound which raved about her “seasoned vocals and an air of general badassery” and her last leg of North American dates nearly sold-out entirely. Her high-octane performance style has also earned her spots on major festival lineups, including Lollapalooza, and tour support for acts including Yungblud, FLETCHER, K. Flay, PVRIS, and BROODS.

These tour dates follow on the heels of her newly released astrology-themed EP, Sagittarius, timed to Sagittarius season. On the EP, UPSAHL offers listeners an introspective glimpse into her dynamic personality and explores the multifaceted experience of being a Sagittarius. A purveyor of self-love and confidence, it revolves around themes of acceptance, tapping into inner strength, and resilience. Each song on the project taps into a different trait intrinsic to the fire sign. Read more via Rolling Stone HERE. More to come from UPSAHL in 2023!

ABOUT UPSAHL:

UPSAHL released songs that gained much-deserved recognition early in her career throughout the Phoenix music scene. As a Arizona School for the Arts graduate, she ignited a groundswell of fan adoration and tastemaker praise by way of numerous indie alternative gems. “Can You Hear Me Now” achieved a palpable viral buzz followed by the widely praised single “Drugs,” which has been used in nearly two million TikTok videos, reaching #6 on the Viral Chart and the #1 Sound on the Trends Chart.

 

2020 was a standout year where UPSAHL released her second EP Young Life Crisis, which Billboard crowned as one of the Top 25 Pop albums of the year. UPSAHL undertook her first co-write on “Good in Bed'' for Dua Lipa’s GRAMMY Award-winning blockbuster, Future Nostalgia, and lent her pen to Madison Beer on her fiery single “BOYSHIT,” as well as Mike Shinoda’s upbeat anthem “Happy Endings,” which featured herself and iann dior. UPSAHL has also collaborated with Anne-Marie and Little Mix on “Kiss My (Uh Oh).” Most recently, UPSAHL joined forces with GAYLE on her track “e-z,” was featured on the star-studded film Bullet Train soundtrack, with the song “My Time to Shine,” co-wrote three songs on Renee Rapp’s latest EP Everything To Everyone, and was featured on NGHTMRE’s single “ATMOSPHERE” from debut DRMVRSE. Her latest collaboration with Alan Walker on the single “Shut Up,” which UPSAHL co-wrote and is featured on, steadily climbs various charts around the world.

 

In the fall of 2021, UPSAHL released her debut album Lady Jesus, anointing the singer as one of People Magazine’s “Talented Emerging Artists Making Their Mark in 2022” and “a musical force to be reckoned with” (Nylon). It was followed by the powerful statement-making “Monica Lewinsky,” a feminist anthem, in addition to “Antsy,” and “Into My Body” off her star-sign inspired EP Sagittarius. The EP provides an introspective glimpse into her fiery persona and pays homage to her sign.

 

The latest EP follows on the heels of UPSAHL’s highly successful debut headline tour, where she sold out venues across the US, and then continued on an expansive international tour, which included Australia, the UK and Europe.. Her high-octane performance style has also earned her spots on major festival lineups, including Lollapalooza, and tour support for acts including Olivia O’Brien, Fletcher, Yungblud, PVRIS, BROODS, and K. Flay.
