DRAMA at St Andrews Hall
DRAMA brought a sleek, late night energy to St. Andrews Hall, turning the room into an intimate dance floor from the moment they took the stage. The duo’s blend of moody electronic production and soulful vocals felt right at home in the historic venue, with the low ceilings and packed crowd amplifying every beat. From the first song, it was clear the audience was locked in heads nodding, bodies moving, and phones mostly down as people soaked it in.
Live, DRAMA’s songs carried more weight than their studio versions, with pulsing bass and shimmering synths filling the room. Via Rosa’s vocals were smooth and expressive, floating effortlessly over Na’el Shehade’s production, while subtle lighting shifts matched the mood of each track. The set flowed naturally, balancing darker, atmospheric moments with songs that pushed the crowd to dance a little harder, creating a steady rise and fall that kept things engaging throughout the night.
By the end of the show, St. Andrews Hall felt completely transformed sweaty, energized, and fully in sync with the duo onstage. DRAMA didn’t rely on over-the-top theatrics; instead, they let the music and the connection with the crowd do the heavy lifting. It was the kind of performance that felt both polished and personal, leaving the audience buzzing long after the final beat faded out.
