H.E.R. on Tour
H.E.R.'s smooth-as-butter voice and romantic R&B melodies have the power to leave you weak in the knees. She may have concealed her identity for the first few years of her career and still likes to hide behind thick sunglasses when performing, but it doesn't hold back her magnetism onstage.Â
Her first major performances came in 2017, at the ASCAP Rhythm and Soul Awards and the BET Experience concerts. She then supported Bryson Tiller on his Set It Off tour, before heading out on her first headlining run with The Lights On tour. She followed that with her I Used to Know Her tour, as well as appearances at major festivals around the U.S. and Europe.
H.E.R. Background
When H.E.R. first released music in 2016, nobody knew it was child prodigy Gabriella Wilson behind the moniker. It took nearly two years and a handful of EPs for her to finally reveal her identity. She's said that the reason for keeping that secret so long was that she wanted her music to speak for itself â and it sure has.Â
But Wilson's story starts well before her days as H.E.R. Born in Vallejo, California, the budding singer was always surrounded by music at home and became especially fond of artists like Prince and Lauryn Hill. She learned to play numerous instruments, including piano and guitar, and by age 12 she was competing on Radio Disney's The Next BIG Thing.Â
Two years later, she signed to RCA and released the single "Something to Prove." It wasn't until late 2016 that she took on the name H.E.R., an acronym for "Having Everything Revealed." At just 19 years old, she released her debut EP, H.E.R. Vol. 1, an intimate set of silky R&B that came with public praise from big names like Usher, Alicia Keys, and Rihanna. It peaked at No. 28 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.Â
H.E.R. Vol. 2 followed in 2017 and took her even higher on the chart. Later in 2017, she combined the two EPs for H.E.R., which also featured six new tracks, including "Best Part," her dreamy duet with Daniel Caesar. The album was a hit, both on the Billboard charts and at the 2019 Grammy Awards, where it was nominated for Album of the Year and won Best R&B Album.
The concert was supposed to start at 0730 pm and did not start till 9pm. Otherwise H.E.R. was great, lights and music are great too. The venue got a little crowded.
First of all, the concert was fantastic, but why advertise 7:30 on the tickets only to start the show at 9pm? You could have said doors open at 7:30 show starts at 9. People were waiting for over an hour outside in the rain, I realize you can't control the weather but a little common sense of letting folks in early would have gone a long way toward goodwill.
Just the best all around talented music artist. I had no idea aside from playing the guitar and piano, she plays the drums too. Thought the concert was a bit short but I think the audience didnt know that she would have done an encore if we had stayed and continued to cheer her on to come back on stage. It was a bummer, she probably would have played for another half hour. It was just weird! Nevertheless, H.E.R was amazing, I can listen to her sing and play her music all day long!!!

My partner and I went to the Coldplay concert in San Diego and she opened for them and it was THE BEST live music I have EVER heard. She absolutely SHREDDED the guitar and drums and sang the best high notes and runs. She sang my favorite song âWe Made Itâ and I am forever grateful for the opportunity to be able to hear her sing it in person. 10/10, 5 stars!
My bae H.E.R was so amazing she performed all of her songs! This was experience that will forever stay in my heart Iâll wait for her to come to Chicago! She even more beautiful in person.
Her performance was wonderful! Her vocals were crisp the band was amazing the background singers sounded great. I would go and see her time and time again. Money well spent.
She had no opening act, sang beautifully, continuously kept the crowd hyped and she sang everything, including covers. The show was about an hour and 20 minutes long, but she left us wanting more!! Thanks to Chase Sapphire (Iâm guessing), because every seat was reasonably priced. H.E.R is the real deal!!! If I could give her show 6 stars, I would!!!
