On February 7, 2026, rookie girl group UNIS brought their tour to Racket NYC, delivering a performance that balanced bright, high-energy stages with deeply emotional moments. Attending the New York City stop in person, the sincerity and vulnerability the group shared with fans stood out just as much as the setlist (setlist below article!) itself. For many in the crowd, including those experiencing UNIS’s music live for the first time, the night offered an engaging introduction to the group’s sound and stage presence.
From the opening moments of the show, the atmosphere inside Racket NYC was filled with anticipation. Fans responded enthusiastically as UNIS moved through a setlist that highlighted the group’s youthful and energetic sound. Songs like “Swicy” energized the venue, while “Curious,” a fan favorite, drew especially loud cheers and engagement from the crowd.
As the night went on, moments of heightened crowd energy became increasingly noticeable. Fans dancing and jumping along to the group’s songs created a sense of shared excitement, a reaction that visibly moved the members and underscored the reality that UNIS has supporters in many different places.
Julia ( @hachikoslove) , a fan who attended, shared her experience. She said, “I loved the concert. It was amazing. The girls were so talented, and even from the back my view was great. My favorite moment was definitely when they were talking about the things they wanted to do in New York. Some fans were joking about chopped cheese, others about bacon, egg, and cheese, which was so funny. The only downside was some miscommunication between fans, the venue, and event staff, which left a few people waiting outside in the cold longer than expected. But overall, it was such a fun experience.”
Another fan , Fran ( @the0nlyfran._), echoed the positive atmosphere of the performance while also noting areas for improvement. He said, “The concert itself was very good and enjoyable, but the only thing that made my experience bad was how unorganized the event was. The VIPs were barely able to see the members, even during the fan sign or the group photos. They moved us upstairs and made us stand in rows, and some people in the back could not see over taller attendees. The volunteers were nice, though, and they were helpful with questions throughout the whole show.”
During the ending ments, the members took time to speak directly to the audience, expressing heartfelt gratitude for the support they received that night. They acknowledged that many attendees were present through complimentary tickets and emphasized how meaningful it was to perform in front of such a supportive crowd. Member Elisha shared a particularly touching story. She explained that she trained in musical theatre arts when she was younger and once dreamed of coming to New York City to perform on Broadway. Standing on a New York stage for the first time as part of UNIS’s tour was deeply emotional for her and resonated strongly with fans in attendance.
Immediately following the ending ments, UNIS performed “See You in My Dreams,” a moment that became one of the emotional peaks of the night. Several members became visibly emotional during the song, shedding tears as they sang. Coming after the group’s heartfelt reflections, the performance felt especially powerful, reinforcing the deep bond between UNIS and their fans.
By the end of the night, UNIS had done more than perform their songs. They created an environment rooted in honesty, gratitude, and connection. The concert at Racket NYC highlighted the group’s ability to turn a live performance into a meaningful shared experience, leaving fans with a lasting impression of both their talent and their sincerity.

On April 19th, Webster Hall was filled with “FLO Lifers” eagerly awaiting the UK girl group FLO who are currently embarking on their “FLO Live” tour. Formed 2019, FLO consists of Jorja Douglas, Renee Downer, & Stella Quaresma. The group’s style distinctly derives from R&B and Hip-Hop from the 1990’s and early 2000s. For a more in-depth analysis FLO’s sound and trajectory watch here (https://youtu.be/i18hpBoW4EU)/ <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/i18hpBoW4EU" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Before FLO took the stage, Samaria, an Oakland R&B singer, opened the show. Samaria started with a simple backdrop featuring her name, keys, and drums. The audience seemed familiar with her music and if they were not, they were supportive and living in the moment. Samaria interacted with the audience well and related to them on the basis of terrible ex's and a journey through a toxic relationship. Samaria’s songs had interesting cadences, but what was missing for us was backing vocals on the track to delineate verses from choruses. After doing some research we found that the “Out of the Way” singer has a sound also inspired by 00s R&B, with a some tracks tracks full of fun guitar licks and drum patterns reminiscent of Timbaland, but none of those instruments were present in her performance. Her backline consisted of a keyboardist and a drummer. Although Samaria sounded good, at times the keyboard’s volume was overpowering. She worked the stage, nonetheless and good job. 7.5 out of 10 ! ()SCORE

Next up was the much-anticipated FLO, and the girls opened with "Not My Job." They were all dressed in black with cute cutouts, and their outfits were shimmery (I love sparkle!) which was a welcome change from their wardrobe at the MOBO awards. Their faces were beat (we love a “natural glam”),
their vocals were tight, and their choreography was utilized well to highlight grooves. The chemistry between the girls was undeniable, and their vocal blend was seamless— absolutely chill-inducing. Jorja's thick vocal tone took the songs to a soulful place, and Stella's airy delivery allowed her to float at the top of the group's harmonies. Renee's smooth, warm alto voice added a coolness to their sound and gained a lot more stability in live singing. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention FLO’s band! The band consisted of some past schoolmates, which added another layer of charm to the whole set!
The absolute highlight of the show was "Losing You” In this live arrangement, the girls emoted and connected with the audience on a deeper level. Chris loved harmonized adlibs, brand new bridge and extra outdo including a guitar solo. As a special treat, FLO performed a cover of Jamelia's version of "Superstar" by Christine Militon. Even though a majority of the NYC crowd had no clue who Jamelia was and didn't know the song, the girls did teach the chorus before singing the song, so some fans were able to follow along. Chris and I certainly knew the song and even received compliments on synchronized impromptu choreography.
Speaking of choreo…
The girls' choreography was something we were curious to see, and they did not disappoint. They danced well, and they were given grooves as opposed to sharp movements that really complemented each member's personal style. In terms of technique, they aren’t K-pop idols so we weren’t expecting crazy formations and “point dances,” but you can tell they put in the work to provide another layer of entrainment to the experience. There was even some chair-ography for their performance of "Change," a new track about a lover's inability to "do the work" necessary to improve the condition of the relationship.
The girls did perform their latest single, "Fly Girl" ft Missy Elliot, and although Missy Elliot was present in the audience, she did not join the performance.

Fans (the FLO Lifers) were absolutely living their best lives! They knew all the words to FLO’s songs—the BGV's and the ad-libs. It was a room full of genuine love and screams! FLO closed the night with their debut single, "Cardboard Box," and this performance featured a heavenly bridge section.
Overall, the show was good, and for this to be the group's first headlining tour, we were impressed with the girls’ improvement from performances like the MOBO Awards, where nerves played a noticeable factor. FLO is worth the hype for sure, and we cannot wait to see the new era of girl groups being led by FLO. For their NYC debut, we rate them a 9 out of 10! FLO Lifers left Webster Hall with unforgettable memories and high expectations for FLO's future performances.
