Expect a larger-than-life energy to her iridescent make-up, Bowie-esque boot-and-blazer get-ups and ready-to-risk-it-all ballads that are abundant in brutally honest and vulnerable storytelling lyrics. Dazed Beauty told their readers, “There’s something deliciously defiant about Caroline Kingsbury’s approach to pop music…through the holographic lens of 80s maximalism and New Romantic flair, she crafts songs that are emotional, percussive, and dramatic, born from breaking free of the conservative constraints of her Southern evangelical upbringing.”
Fresh off electric festival debuts at Lollapalooza and All Things Go in late 2025, Caroline amassed 300k monthly listeners and landed a huge feature in the best-selling game ‘Dispatch.’ Her fan favorite sleeper hit ‘Kissing Someone Else’ accumulated over 6 million streams after the song was featured in Episode 1 and the game sold over a million copies in its first week. 2025 also brought Caroline the viral collaboration with fellow indie pop artist Maris with ‘Give Me A Sign.’ The song landed Caroline a feature for the second year in a row on Spotify’s ‘Best Pop Songs of 2025’ and a co-headline tour.

Shock n awe…send me!
Always down for the mission, please
Cuz I’ve yet to explore her music. I’d love to go to a big-time concert and be introduced to the artist’s work at a live concert. The only other time I’ve done that was for Rush’s opening night of the Counterparts tour. I decided to wait until AFTER the concert to get the album. Special treats: Our hotel was next to the stadium, so we and all the Rush-heads hung out in the parking lot, going into ecstasy when we realized they were finally going to add “Xanadu” to their set list after years of not playing it live. Meeting them briefly in the hotel lobby, as they were also guests there. And hearing the opening act for the first time — Candlebox, a great band I’d never heard of before. I’d like to experience that same excitement of learning about a new (to me) artist at their concert. It’s why I’ve only listened to maybe three songs at the most from Taylor Swift lol I’m still holding out for the concert lol
I’m a recent fan. Yes please!!
I’d love to go because Caroline is awesome!
This could make up for my missing the Peaches show 🙂
I love Caroline Kingsbury! She’s so cool
Omigosh! I saw Caroline with Maris last year and the show was AMAZING! I’d love to see her again!
Her last album is in HEAVY rotation.
Been a big fan for years but couldn’t go to the last show she had in Portland. Would love to make up for that & she is playing at a venue I d9nt get really anxious being in.
Pick me!
unique never goes out of style
pleaseeee
This would be a wild show and I would love to attend.
I’ve been a longtime fan of hers, seen her previous two shows in Portland as well as her intimate set at Lollapalooza last year and she always puts on a fantastic show! Love a queer icon!
Heard a lot of good things
Beautiful artist!
Woah this artist has got some style!
Super Rad.
Spotify set me up with living this queen and her music. I know she will be as popular as Chappell Roan one day. She is extremely talented.
