Chase Atlantic brought their Beauty In Death Tour to The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco on October 8th. The three-member band from Australia performed a two-act set and began the night with “PARANOID,” a song from their Beauty In Death album, released earlier this year in March.
The band put on an energetic set and constantly moved around the stage, feeding off the crowd’s energy. During each song, lead vocalist Mitchel Cave appeared to want to jump into the multitude of people; rhythm guitarist and vocalist Christian Anthony kept flexing his muscles which provoked screams from girls, who seemed to appreciate the tank top he was wearing. And lead guitarist, saxophonist, and backup vocalist Clinton Cave effortlessly switched between instruments throughout the night, showing off his mastery of the skills and incredibly powerful musicianship.
The group also included several songs from their first self-titled album like “Into It” and “Swim” as a special treat for the fans that have been with them since day one. To end the night, they performed “WASTED.” Then, the trio returned to the stage for a highly-requested encore and performed their final two songs, “OUT THE ROOF” and “Okay.” There are still a few tour dates left before Chase Atlantic wraps up their tour in mid-November. If you miss seeing them live, they have a few livestream performances set up that will hopefully hold you over till the next time they hit the road.
