Christina Perri
Xfinity Arena, Everett, WA
10.2.14
Nine songs hardly seemed enough Thursday at the Xfinity Arena, where Christina Perri more than wowed the thousands in attendance. From tweens to moms to all ages between, the audience was comprised of mainly girls, who gleefully packed the venue with song and dance. Perri recently visited the Emerald City with a date this past May at the Neptune Theatre; this current tour pairs her as the opening act for Demi Lovato.
Perri had an impressive library to choose from, spanning from one platinum selling album to the next. Long icicle lights covered the backdrop while songs like “A Thousand Years,” “Arms,” and “Jar of Hearts” warmly filled the stadium. She also threw in an amazing, unique cover of Coldplay’s “A Sky Full of Stars,” done beautifully in her “typical” fashion, with a majestic voice full of angst. Nine songs was hardly enough. Captivated, the audience gave her a headlining applause as Perri’s performance was sincerely passionate and heartfelt. One got goose bumps feeling that this unforgettable performance was coming from the heart.
