It was time to get dirty at Roadrunner on Monday night. Ashnikko brought her WEEDKILLER tour to Boston, with support from Audrey Nuna. Nuna opened the show with a contagious energy. She stomped, spun, and sprinted around the stage. It was the perfect vibe to get the crowd hyped for the grungey, eclectic set that followed. Ashnikko appeared in a tattered, earth-toned outfit that was reminiscent of Tomb Raider or Mad Max. She had two dancers perform at her side for a majority of the show, sometimes appearing alone to do more personal tracks. The choreography was an unexpected bonus to the show in addition to Ashnikko’s stellar vocals. As far as the setlist, it catered to both new and old fans. The tour was to promote her new release, WEEDKILLER, but Ashnikko mixed in some songs from her most popular album, DEMIDEVIL. The crowd screamed along to viral hits like Slumber Party and Daisy, both of which blew up on TikTok last year. It was a blast to see WEEDKILLER come to life and see Ashnikko in all her back-bending glory.
