With only three weeks’ notice, singer-songwriter James Marriott took the stage for his debut headline show at a sold-out O2 Academy Brixton. Opening with a curtain drop and a blast of confetti cannons, there was no better moment for Marriott to announce his third solo album, Warning Signs, right there and then.

Chloe Slater kicked off the night with an engaging, high-energy set. With her debut album Riot Youth dropping on October 9th and a headline tour lined up for November, Slater proved why she’s one to watch, winning over the Brixton crowd with effortless charm and stage presence.

With the new album set for release via AWAL on January 15th 2027, Marriott treated the crowd to hits from across his wide discography, plus several unreleased tracks. Performing his latest single, ‘Burn Down The Disco’ early on in the set, the track was met with a huge response – an amazing accomplishment considering the song was only two weeks post-release.
