It’s been a minute since Rachel Chinouriri last played a headline show in her home city, something she noted onstage at Shoreditch Town Hall on Wednesday night (June 3). “I realized I hadn’t done a London show, I think, in over a year. I was worried that maybe nobody would come tonight,” she admitted with a laugh, acknowledging her time away. “Thank you so much for being amazing, and reminding me that you guys are so special.”
Performing in the music program for 2026’s SXSW London, the show provided the British star a moment of reconnection with her Darlings — the name affectionately given to her fans — following two years of being booked and extremely busy. Chinouriri, however, is not a musician that is easily forgotten.
