If you were at ACL Fest Nights (at Emo’s) on October 11, you know the vibe was electric. Remi Wolf took the stage like a comet streaking through the night, and we were all fortunate enough to be in her orbit.
Opening Act: Slimdan
Before the main event, Slimdan set the tone with an explosive performance that felt like a shot of espresso straight to the soul. His eclectic sound blended catchy beats with sharp lyrics, drawing the crowd in with a magnetic energy that had us dancing before we even knew the words. Slimdan has this way of mixing playful charisma with serious talent, making every moment feel spontaneous and alive. You could almost see the sparks flying as he moved from track to track, creating a perfect lead-in for Remi.

Remi’s ability to connect with the audience was remarkable. She shared stories, cracked jokes, and made us all feel like part of her journey. It was less like a concert and more like a vibrant gathering of friends, united by music and good vibes.
