Reneé Rapp
with Alexander 23 and Towa Bird
at Fillmore
livenation.com
Acclaimed singer-songwriter Reneé Rapp is touring in support of her debut album Snow Angel.
Alexander 23 is also listed on the poster. We previously saw Alexander 23 in Oct 2022 and wrote, “After “Somebody’s Nobody” Alexander removed a long-sleeve shirt to reveal a sleeveless T. Many cheered and some barked. “I’ve never been barked at,” he said, which guaranteed barking for the rest of the evening. Alexander’s sweet spot is singing about that tumultuous time of being a teenager, which he captured in “High School” with rolling cymbals, rising piano chords and a pointed falsetto voice.”
Show up early to check out singer / songwriter / guitarist Towa Bird. The half-Filipino, half-English artist spent much of her time in Thailand and London, and formed her first band at the age of 14. Her new single, “This Isn’t Me” came out on Interscope Records.
