Chelsea Cutler made her first visit to Portland, Oregon in two years for her The Beauty is Everywhere Tour and her first since releasing the Stelleria album in October. 

The night kicked off with Adrian Galvin, who goes by the stage name Yoke Lore. It was only he and his drummer, Rafe Bouchard, that took the stage and yet filled the room with indie bops with melodic bridges. Notably, a Savage Garden cover of “Truly Madly Deeply” and Yoke Lore dropping his guitar to dance to his song “Shake” won the crowd over and warmed them up for the rest of the evening. 

Chelsea Cutler started her set with “Something More.” The stage was an incredible light show in itself, adding to each beat and transition throughout the night. After a few songs, Chelsea took time to visit with the crowd. Fans participated in a little warm-up of clapping and hip circles before Chelsea spoke to the straight men, alluding that if they appeared to have fun, they would be getting lucky after the show. She called out the song “Hunting Season,” that it was a song about crippling mental illness, and the crowd noticeably sang along. She joked that she was terrible at playing “Growing Up is Hard” and that everyone should be nice to her. Then Chelsea slowed it down on the piano for a trio of songs, rotating in “You’re All I’ve Ever Dreamed Of.” The rest of the evening was picked up after what felt like a dance party to “Sad Tonight,” then brought a fan to help play the pad controller for “The Reason.”

Chelsea’s performance showed her connection with her fans as they shared intimate moments full of laughter, sing-a-longs, dancing, strobes, and ballads.
