Charli xcx brought her “Brat” tour to Coachella along with many of the guests she’s had on the album (and onstage) in the ten months since she launched the album: Billie Eilish, Lorde and Troye Sivan — and in an uncharacteristically sentimental typed montage on the giant video screens at the show’s end, she teased that even though summer is long since over, she never wants “Brat Summer” to end.
The veteran singer-songwriter-producer dropped a coy hint in the days before the festival, using the road-to-Coachella-billboard tradition to tease the appearance by taking out a billboard in the trademark bilious shade of light green featured on the Grammy-winning “Brat” album cover, but with the word crossed out. It set off the expected flurry of social-media speculation, none of it conclusive. (Far more obvious was Eilish’s Instagram story yesterday: a blank slate of “Brat” green.
Charli’s performance was strong but basically the same set she’s been touring since her joint “Sweat” tour with Sivan last fall, albeit with not only him (for “Talk Talk”) but also a khaki-clad Lorde (who’d also joined her onstage in New York in September for “Girl, So Confusing”) and Eilish (for the remix of “Guess”). As usual, however, Charli was onstage solo for most of the night, bodying the songs with her trademark unusually violent dancing: hard fist pumps and hair-whipping, torso wrenching and writhing on the stage floor.
Every song except three were from the album: She also served up 2017’s “Unlock It,” 2019’s “Blame It on Your Love” and finished with the song that launched her career as a hitmaker, “I Love It,” the Icona Pop global hit that she wrote and co-produced. And just as it seemed the show was over, words began appearing in a slow sequence, in her familiar style and typefaces, on the giant screens on either side of the stage as she stood and basked in the applause.

“Thank you so much Coachella,” they began. “Does this mean that brat summer is finally over????? … Idk? … Maybe? … yeah cuz duh it was already over like last year. … wait… was it? … NO???… I don’t know who I am if it’s over??? FUCKKKKK…. Wait… I remembered…I’m Charli XCX… and honestly… I just want this moment to last forever… PLEASE DON’T LET IT BE OVER.” And with that, the lights went down.
Realistically, “Brat Summer” was likely to last at least until the fall, as she’s got a brace of U.S. area dates following Coachella, and then will be performing at European festivals all summer.
