Konsertrecension: Hayley Kiyoko fix their own pride festival

Hayley Kiyoko is a renaissance man. The tjugosjuåriga two years since the time that Disneybarnstjärna built a broad acting career, directed music videos, written choreography and cartoon series. And made music, then. After highschoolband and the more successful The Stunners (where, among other Tinashe included), she has now landed in the r&b-influenced pop on one main theme: To be a lesbian.

At the scene, it is just gayikonen who come forward. The first thing that meets me into the gympahall is how any of the audience all excited tonårsgäng send gaymem to my phone. Via bluetooth. Because of the history that barnstjärna have Kiyoko become a role model for the gay community in the early teens, and here they have a free zone even before the concert has even started.

to deafening cheers. It's a simple typesetting: Drummer, guitarist, two dancers. Kiyoko makes hiphopmoves in lilaglittrande jacket, but is for the most part quite still. The electronic poppen, heavily influenced by Tegan and Sara and Katy Perry, is handsome. But also performed routine.

the Audience is all the more vivid. Daughters, couples, moms and a few single guys doing the concert to a festival with a valentine's day theme. To finally answer Kiyoko energy. In the Prince-ly steaming backlight, she sings about the magic moment in which a close friendship will become something else. If beröringarna suddenly sends everything in a new direction.

in answer, she gets a prideflagga nedklottrad with very explicit advances.

storhitten ”Curious” and a moving speech about at least trying to be himself, despite his self-hate and a world judiciary. But in the midst of the party atmosphere I miss something: Mångsysslaren Kiyoko. The creatively explosive creature that smiled so wide that she became an actress at the age of five, who wrote steppdans in high school, does not appear to.

instead, this is a fairly regular concert at the end of the turnécykeln. The transformative power comes from all of the below scene.
