Ashnikko welcomed everyone into her Smoochie Girl world in Manchester last week, joined by Amelia Moore as support, as they both individually brought their stages to life.
Moore captivated the crowd with her relatable lyrics, confident stage presence and emotional connection with fans, but it was her powerhouse vocals that truly took her performance to a whole new level, and her talent was undeniable.
Ashnikko then brought a cool theatrical flair to her set, with a variety of props including a giant heart locket and even first appearing on stage through a tiny door. Each song was a unique performance in itself, further elevated by her backing dancers.
Songs from Ashnikko’s mammoth 25-track setlist included fan-favourites Daisy, STUPID, and Trinkets, alongside tracks from her new album including She’s So Pretty and Liquid. The energy never wavered throughout the night, and fans savoured every moment.
