I Just Read About That…

[ATTENDED: April 22, 2026] Sir Chloe [rescheduled from December 7, 2025]

This show was initially scheduled for December, but Dana had appendicitis and had to postpone the east coast shows.  This worked out for me because I couldn’t get to the December show.

Suzy Clue was supposed to open the previous show and she opened this one as well.  When I looked her up last time I discovered that Suzy Clue

is the internet’s newest “hot emo girl.” Her music is angsty but not overly precious, breathing fresh life into traditional shoegaze sound palettes. As a self-taught musician, Suzy is reminding the music industry what it’s like to start from scratch. She’s gone from not knowing what a bassline is to writing and producing a song that thrashes and shatters your heart over and over again.

I was intrigued to see her.  When the band came out I was fascinated by the set up.  Bass and guitar were really far apart with the drums tucked in behind the guitar. I thought that it was odd that Suzy on bass would be way over to the side of the stage.  And t hen as the first song started, I realized my foolish mistake.  Because they were leaving room for Suzy herself, who came out looking far sexier than I expected with “hot emo girl” taking on a very different meaning.  I was genuinely surprised at how oddly sexual her performance was (especially since Sir Chloe is totally not that).

I had listened to a few of her songs before the show (she has 4 songs released at this time) and they were cool–heavy guitars and soft vocals.  But live, I found the soft vocals to be “sexy” rather than “dreamy.”

Love Me the Same opened with a quiet guitar part and Suzy danced around the stage before singing her sultry vocals.  And then the song exploded with guitars and bass and Suzy danced around some more.  It was weird–like she didn’t know what to do, so she danced like she was trying to seduce us all.

I really liked the drum part of Holy Touch and there were some cool effects on the guitar.  In fact I liked a lot of the sounds the band generated.  But it honestly felt like she was trying way too hard to be sexy.  At one point she dropped to the floor and did something I couldn’t see and then said “oops, my pants slid down, I hate when that happens.”  She also did a sexy thing where it looked like she might make out with the bass player (but didn’t).  It was just too much.

There was also a funny moment when she said this was all so surreal because she used to work here (Brooklyn Bowl), well, not this one, the one in New York.  Hmmm.

So overall, I liked the music and I still like her recorded songs, but the live show just felt off to me.
