Blending old school soul and modern hip-hop influences, Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Chrisette Michele is one of the strongest female voices in contemporary R&B. With the release of Better in 2013, Michele landed her fourth consecutive Top 10 album on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, earning praise for her constantly-evolving sound and silky, confident vocal delivery. The diversity of material on the album is nowhere more apparent than on its singles, which juxtapose the smooth R&B of “A Couple of Forevers” with the minimal hip-hop glitch of 2-Chainz featured “Charades.” After leading gospel choirs in high school, Michele went on to earn a vocal performance degree before releasing her debut album I am in 2007. Supported by four singles, I Am peaked at No. 5 on the R&B chart and earned Michele a Best Urban/Alternative Performance Grammy for hit single “Be OK.” Her 2009 sophomore album Epiphany would prove even more successful, peaking at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and paving the way for a series of appearances on tracks by artists including The Game, Jay-Z, and Nas. On tour with Jaheim in 2013, Michele has treated ticket buyers to her characteristically understated swagger, earning rave reviews for her soulful live concerts.

Chrisette Michele is an artist unlike any other out there today. Her sound is very original and she writes most of her own material. I would definitely buy tickets to see her in concert again.
Besides being late and having holes on the back of her pants the performance was great. Can't wait to she her live again!
Chrisette Michele's perfromance was absolutely amazing! She certainly has talent beyond her years! 5 Stars for Chrisette The venue was not great- the balcony seats are too far up (steep); therefore, you look down on the stage. And, depending on where you are seated, there were times during the performance that you were not able to see Chrisette because of an obstructed view. 2 Stars for the venue
Excellent venue. Price was right. Food was good, drinks were on point. Show was great.
I really like Chrisette Michele music; however I did not like waiting 2 hours to see her. Her show was suppose to start at 8pm and it did not start until 10:05pm. Considering she is a new artist I thought she would have at least apologize for being late. I understand things happen; however I think it was unprofessional to not say I apologize for being late. I also understand that artist like to wait for a crowd to come before they preform. In this case we had the crowd but know Chrisette. Then when she finally came on stage she only performed for 1 hour. To make a long story short; if she is in town performing again I will only see her if she is performing with other artist.
Believe it or not, the praise you read and hear of Chrisette Michele is not just marketing, promotion and/or hype-it's true! Chrisette deliveres a solid performance from beginning to end. Truthfully, even after giving the audience her all, some how Chrisette Michele still managed to leave everyone in attendance begging for more, 15 minutes after her set had closed. And to everyone's pleasant surprise, Chris came back out and left it all on the stage one last time before finally closing a memorable show.
I really love Chrisette's voice and presence during a live performance. However, the concert was supposed to start at 8:00 p.m. and Chrisette didn't hit the stage until 10:00 p.m. and only gave us about 1 hour on stage. Now I have been to plenty of concerts before and understand that the headlining artist doesn't hit the stage right away and usually has someone perform before them. However, with this show one of her backup singers came out around 9:00 p.m. and only did about 2 or 3 songs. This was truly a disappointment for me because I came all the way from the Washington, DC area.
Chrisette Michele's inexcusable attitude outshined her performance by far! I never attended a concert where it was noticeably unorganized. I, as an optimistic person, always give people the benefit of the doubt, but when you’re standing in one spot for two hours and thirty minutes (in high hills I might add) you began to question if you can get your money back to go to the spa and get your feet medically treated. If I thought for a second that this statement I am making would be available on Google, I'd write a article instead, entitled “What Not to Do As A Performer- The Chrisette Michele NO NO…tisk tisk tisk”. I attended this concert based on my own delight in her music and developed a respect for her when she started gaining recognition in the music industry. I even thought that her songs were genuine, but it’s amazing how inconsiderate Chrisette was to her audience (One of those- you'd had to be there to know exactly where I'm coming from). Mind you…she only performed for 45 minutes…if that!?...with the crowd saying, ‘I know she’s not ending the show, she must be joking!” Unfortunately, listening to her music is unpleasant NOW due to her attitude. I’m so glad I’m not a die heart fan. What a disappointment! Worst of all, we cheered for over 10 minutes for her to perform one last song for the road and she came out with a “Lets Get This Over With” facial expression (she's still a good singer, but you can't keep fans that way- especially when fans invest their money in these hard times).
Chrisette Michele definitely sounded like her albums. It is easy to see why people love her (myself included). There were a few things that kind of upset me. The show was late and boy do I mean late. The opening act (one of Chrisette Michele's background singers) did not come to the stage until 9:30 pm. Ms. Michele did not start until 10 pm. While she did most of the songs from her new album, it would have been nice to hear songs from her debut album. The show was over by 11, which I thought was too short.
This lady is amazing..... Every key, every note, every pitch right on the dot.... She loves her fans and expressess that in her shows. This was my 2nd time having the pleasure of seeing her live and both times were DY-NO-MITE!!!! (in my JJ from Good Times voice) Much success!!!
The overall show was amazing, the only problem I had was that the tickets said 8 but the show didn't start till 10. Other than that it was amazing! Chrisette is an AMAZING performer and is definitely the next Anita Baker!
