Melanie Martinez on Tour
Melanie Martinez's first major performance was no small gig. As a teenager, she sang, played guitar and tapped a tambourine with her feet to a crowd of over 12 million on national television, where she impressed three of four judges on NBC's The Voice. Since that momentous day in 2012, the singer-songwriter with the two-toned hair has quickly grown into a full-fledged pop star with a quirky alter ego (Cry Baby) to boot. Onstage, Martinez plays with a colorful, childlike whimsy with striking visuals to match. She first took her show on the road in 2014 for the Dollhouse tour, followed by the Cry Baby world tour to support her 2015 debut album. In between, she landed support slots alongside Lindsey Stirling and Adam Lambert. In 2019, to coincide with her sophomore album and first feature film, K-12, Martinez announced her next world tour.
Melanie Martinez in Concert
Melanie Martinez's surreal alt-pop draws from an array of influences, from The Beatles to 2Pac to Britney Spears, the latter who would help bring the young singer-songwriter to TV screens across the U.S. The Queens-born, Long Island–raised Martinez started writing poetry in kindergarten and taught herself how to play guitar by the time she reached high school. In 2012, during her junior year, she landed a televised audition on NBC's The Voice, where she sang Spears' "Toxic." The performance earned her a spot on Adam Levine's team. She made it to the top six before being eliminated. Keeping up the momentum of her newfound fame, Martinez started working on original music. In 2014, she released her debut single "Dollhouse." Soon after, she signed to Atlantic Records and unveiled her debut EP, also called Dollhouse. The following year, she began teasing music from her debut album, including lead single "Pity Party," a dark, dance-y spin on Lesley Gore's classic 1963 track "It's My Party." In August 2015, she released Cry Baby — a reference to her being called "cry baby" as a kid. The album debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 chart. To support the album, Martinez took on the role of filmmaker, directing some of her own music videos. She'd continue pursuing those ambitions for her second album, 2019's K-12, which is accompanied by its own fanciful full-length feature film, written and directed by Martinez herself.
The performance was spectacular, the acting was spot on, however the actual singing was majorly lacking. I've been to other concerts in past years and she has done just fine - maybe she wasn't feeling too well for this one?
I enjoyed the concert. The only thing was the sound quality wasn't the best. You could barely hear her over the bass.
Great performance by a great artist. Would definitely see her again!
My mom bought me these tickets, Melanie is my Queen, and it was freaking amazing!
tbh i dont have very much to say other than flawless quality, and everything went well. Hell, I got to see my favorite artist, what's there to complain about?
Great performance, can't wait until she gets bigger. Voice is amazing.
Show was entertaining for my daughter and niece They loved it. Sang every song. I have only one complaint and that was my seat..good location to see the stage if the support pole was not right in front of me. It was an end seat.That seat or seats should not be sold. Very obstructed view. Pictures were not possible.
The line situation was terrible. Nobody monitored most of it, so everyone was skipping and shoving, but other than that the concert was well done and amazing. Please bring Melanie back.
Took my 15 year old daughter to the show....it was packed. Melanie came out and did over an hour set. She sounded great! Awesome show!
Took my daughter and niece to see Melanie Martinez. Although she's my daughter's favorite artist, i enjoyed the show. I would definitely take her to see Melanie again. Parking was right next to the event. Long line but that was expected.
I love the concert! Good venue and great event. Entertaining.
Ms. Martinez did all the songs here fans wanted to hear. Unfortunately she doesn't have a large catalogue of material. Her set was just over an hour. Opening act Handsome Ghost were forgettable. This new generation of artists don't understand that they must entertain as well as play their songs. Melanie's stage set was good but she needs to learn to interact with the audience more. Handsome Ghost was like listening to a recording. People spend good money to see a SHOW, not just listen to music.
Overall it was a great show my daughter and her best friend had the time of their life
Amazing concerto in New York. Manhattan Center Hammerstein BallroomNew York, NY Fri, Sep 23, 2016
I took my 14 year old daughter and my niece to see Melanie Martinez and the show was very good!! She has an amazing voice and connected to the audience. The stage was set up with awesome props and the light show was really good. The show should have been longer. The show was set for 8 pm and they started to let the crowd in at 8 pm. We found our seats and at about 8:20 Ghost started to play until about 9 pm. When he was done we sat and waited until almost 9:30 pm and then Melanie came on until 10:25 pm. For all the waiting that we did the show definitely should have been longer. Melanie if you read this we would def come to see you again in concert but would like a longer show!!!!
Very organized venue. The setlist was amazing and the opening act was okay. Melanie has amazing vocals both on the studio album and in person. Was worth every penny.
The show was awesome. Her smile is beautiful. I took my daughter since she loves Melanie Martinez, it was worth the 4hour drive (one way) to get there. She is so appreciative of her fans and puts on a great show.
I thought it was a great concert and all but the outside was just so unorganized, security didn't really know how to tame the lines. Also Melanie's first act kept us waiting for like almost 30 minutes which to me is crazy if you really love your fans but over all it was really good.
I loved being able to see Melanie perform live!! She was amazing along with the setup that she used. The only bad thing I really have to say about it is that there are a lot of people and you will get pushed up against the crowd when the show starts. So, if you're claustrophobic and have been known to black out or have anxiety attacks, then a Melanie concert may not be the best environment for you.
Melanie has an amazing stage presence and the venue was packed. The audience was very energetic. We also liked the starting act.
