Indigo De Souza brought the Precipice Tour to Boston on October 26th. De Souza delivered an authentic, engaging, and undeniably fun performance to the Royale, marked by crowd interaction, vulnerability, and raw, emotive vocals.
Reactions to De Souza’s newest album, Precipice, were mixed. However, the record’s songs take on a new life when performed live. De Souza has an inimitable ability to captivate an audience simply with her vocals, lyrics, and the emotions she portrays along with them. She contextualizes most songs for the audience, providing them with a backstory to understand the lyrics and their personal significance to her. Although many of her songs explore dark, difficult themes, De Souza discussed them with grace and humor, allowing the audience to connect with and relate to her. She often provided silly anecdotes between songs, leaving the audience smiling between the songs as well as during them.
In addition to tracks off Precipice, De Souza played fan favorites like “You Can Be Mean,” “Darker Than Death,” and “Real Pain.” As a special surprise during her encore, De Souza also performed “Kill Me” for the first time in many months, to the crowd’s excitement. The audience was fully with De Souza throughout the night, singing every lyric and cheering emphatically. Between De Souza’s stage presence and her fans’ enthusiastic support and unwavering attention, the Royale was teeming with joy and appreciation.
