Review by Kyle Horne.

Making her debut on the TRNSMT stage on Saturday was pop newcomer, Alessi Rose. Sporting a short white dress that danced in the wind, Alessi was glowing – quite literally, with the sun shining down on her, though you could tell that she was glowing, in her element as a musician.

Despite this being Alessi’s first big appearance in Scotland, she didn’t seem nervous one bit. Perhaps for a few reasons: she knew she had her dedicated fans in the front row, and she’s preparing to perform at huge gigs in the States, with notable dates at Madison Square Garden, supporting Tate McRae on tour, so she’s got no time for nerves.

Alessi’s set was a fully pink chapel scene. Fans screamed every word from the front row, worshipping her at the altar.

The pop star took the time to interact with each of her fans, pointing at them and waving, commanding her crowd with confidence.

With similar musicality to Holly Humberstone and Olivia Rodrigo, Alessi is full of natural talent, and it’s only right that it finally gets celebrated.

Having just released her third EP, Voyeur, there are even bigger things coming for Alessi Rose this year.
