The gig in Nashville comes following the singer dropping her latest album last week as the highly anticipated follow-up to 2024’s ‘Brat’. It also came ahead of her headline slot at Lollapalooza 2026, which is set to take place tonight (Friday July 31).
Already, Charli has broken out a few of the new songs in a live setting at her one-off show in Brooklyn earlier this month. There she played ‘Playboy Bunny’, ‘Wink Wink’, ‘If You Take Away the Music Then What Has She Got?’, ‘Camera’ and ‘SS26’ live, before playing a similar set in London shortly after.
Now, she has given more songs on the record their live debut, taking to the stage for a Spotify event at the Basement East in Nashville.
After starting the set with ‘Playboy Bunny’, Charli played ‘Yeah’ live for the first time, before following it up with ‘Brat’ favourite ‘Apple’ and new track ‘Wink Wink’. From there, she played three new songs back-to-back for the first time, ‘Magic Metal Montana’, ‘Card Declined’ and ‘2007’.
Other songs on the setlist included ‘SS26’, ‘Rock Music’, ‘Party 4 U’ and ‘Anthems’, as well as another live debut of ‘No One Lasts Forever’. Check out more footage from the show below, along with the complete setlist.

In a four-star review of ‘Music, Fashion, Film’, NME described the album as a “celebration of art – and its capacity to let you transcend your bounds for something new – feels urgent and timeless”.
Charli has shared an accompanying film, as well as a series of B-sides. Elsewhere, the singer revealed her top five Charli XCX songs, including the “ultimate party song” and a track that makes her feel “very sentimental”.
Next month, Charli will return to the UK to make her headline debut at Reading & Leeds festivals. She is then scheduled to embark on a North American arena tour in September. Find any remaining tickets here.
