Alex Warren\u2019s fans packed Hard Rock Live on Wednesday night for his South Florida concert debut<\/a>, and he made sure they got their money\u2019s worth, and then some.<\/p>\n The 24-year-old, best known for blending acoustic confessions with polished pop production, brought his Cheaper Than Therapy tour to Hollywood, Florida, delivering a show that leaned heavily on emotional highs, fan engagement, and a touch of theatrical flair.<\/p>\n By the time he hit the stage, emerging from the back in a cloud of sparks, the sold-out crowd was already warmed up, thanks in part to an energetic opening set by Maude Latour. The alt-pop singer used the occasion to celebrate her birthday, which fans acknowledged with handmade signs and a chorus of birthday wishes. After her set, Latour posted up at the merch table to meet fans one-on-one, a move that added to the intimate feel of the night.<\/p>\n Photo by Michele Eve Sandberg\/@micheleevephoto<\/p>\n Photo by Michele Eve Sandberg\/@micheleevephoto<\/p>\n But it was Warren\u2019s moment, and he seized it from the jump. Flanked by LED panels and backed by a full band, he ran through a setlist that included \u201cBurning Down,\u201d \u201cGetaway Car,\u201d and \u201cSave You a Seat.\u201d Early in the night, he grabbed an acoustic guitar for \u201cBefore You Leave Me,\u201d softening the room\u2019s energy and showcasing the vocal vulnerability that has helped him dominate platforms like Spotify and TikTok.<\/p>\n From the front rail packed with fans who had traveled across Florida to catch him live, to the sing-along moments during ballads like \u201cEverything\u201d and \u201cEternity,\u201d the atmosphere was as intimate as it was electric. Still, he saved the best for last.<\/p>\n Photo by Michele Eve Sandberg\/@micheleevephoto<\/p>\n After a brief encore break, Warren returned with \u201cCarry You Home\u201d before launching into \u201cOrdinary,\u201d the viral juggernaut that\u2019s become Miami\u2019s unofficial pop anthem of the year. The single, released in February, has exploded globally \u2014 topping the Billboard Global 200 and recently breaking the record for most weeks at No. 1 on Mediabase\u2019s pop radio chart. As New Times covered<\/a> earlier this week, \u201cOrdinary\u201d remained one of the most-played songs in Miami, a rare feat for a track released months ago.<\/p>\n Photo by Michele Eve Sandberg\/@micheleevephoto<\/p>\n Ending with \u201cOrdinary\u201d was a crowd-pleaser and proof that Warren\u2019s vulnerability is what makes him magnetic. <\/p>\n Although Warren\u2019s still winning over critics \u2014 Pitchfork once called him \u201cthe logical conclusion of the last decade of ESGM, nu-folk resurgence, streambait indie pop, and virtually every other roundly hated musical trend\u201d \u2014 for South Florida fans, none of that mattered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alex Warren delivered an extra-Ordinary show at Hard Rock Live.
