Breathe Carolina 

Live reviews

• Breathe Carolina

  Breathe Carolina is one of my favorite bands an last time I had gotten to see them was at the Vans warped tour back in 2014. That was the last concert they did performing from there lastest album "Savages" I loved them and their music had everything I and the crowd want to hear; beats and movements of the crowd was in sync. It was also one of the last times they performed electric rock with the breakdowns/screams.

  Even knowing they had switched up their genres I heard they were going to be at this club called Maya (which I had been dying to go to ever since it had opened back in 2012-13?) so excited as ever to go see my favorite band and this club I had been dying to finally go to (an this was my birthday celebration I might add)

  First I get it's a dj booth so not really easy to perform but David didn't let down, definitely was pumped up and seems happy with their new taste in beats.

  Hyped the crowd an himself up even when the sound or mixing didn't go so great.

  I could hear a vague break in Tommy's voice when he spoke into the microphone (got me excited thinking he was going to let out a scream)

  So they definitely seem content where they are in their music but for me I was completely let down that they only did 2 ("blackout" and "anywhere but home") of their song for less than a minute; everything else was just other people's music an beats which I get it's what Djs do but I was really hoping for them to do their songs- mix it up with their new genre not just combined an play other people's music.

  I left less than an hour into their performance (they went on around 1230ish and I was out by 115ish) disappointed and let down; I really felt as if they had left their unique music to just join in with the rest of the fab train of house/edm etc which is great music and all but they had it together before

  Even if they could of played "more than ever" "platinum" "savages" those songs would of satisfied the crowd I believe.

  Their transition forms songs to song or songs to beats was also rough could of been the speakers or Maya's setup but as a dancer rhym was a bit off and I didn't even get to dance at all except for the 30second they played "anywhere but home" :(

  I won't give up, I will see them again in hopes =)

• Seeing Breathe Carolina live is absolutely crazy! And I mean that in a good way. Personally, their vocals can be hit or miss and sometimes it comes off more as screaming than it does actually singing, but their energy is just so off the charts that in the end you don't even care because you just want to let loose and have a good time.

  I have to specifically signal out David (Schmitt), who is unreal to watch in person and really makes you wonder how someone can be so good and crowd friendly on stage, while still going absolutely crazy at the same time! By far my favorite song they played was "Blackout" because it's where they truly got to show how wild they are. Not only do they bust out the sick beats and crowd interaction, but they also just looked to be having the time of their lives up there. They even let the crowd sing over them... and threw their hats to us!

  It's the coolest thing in the world, and the staging only adds to it with the videotron behind them showing off all kinds of crazy bright colored lights to really put the appropriate mood and feeling of fun out there for us. I can't recommend Breathe Carolina live enough, and yes, as I said, the vocals can be kind of in and out at times... but dang it, it's just so fun and you will have the time of your life dancing around with them and belting out the lyrics at the top of your lungs. Go for the experience, stay for the hat throwing!

• Colorado rock quartet Breathe Carolina have made quite a name for themselves after breaking onto the scene in 2006 with their angsty, relatable dance/pop sound which instantly appeals to the teen market. Years later and the band, the sound and the fanbase all appear to have matured well as the shows are just as frantic yet a little more skilful in general.

  Although the riffs and vocal can sometimes be described as inconsistent, it is a great show for the sheer levels of excited frenzy within the room. No matter what album is your favourite, you are assured to be jumping to all the songs with equal effort due to the way in which the band conducts themselves onstage with every member being a bonafide frontman. Between this encouragement and interaction though they still manage to thrash out the instrumentals of 'Blackout' to a standard that is near identical to the record. The whole crowd have their arms raised high for a finale of 'Diamonds' before the group say their fond farewells above the cheers and applause.

• I went to a night club where they performed at.Since the Taste of Chicago was open they arrived to the venue late.I suggested the taste to David.When they arrived that's when the party started.

  I don't know if the band changed musically because I went to their DJ set.They had the crowd jumping and singing.At the Mid they had 2 erotic dancers dancing on the sides.David poured vodka in some fans mouth.He drank and lit a cigarette while djing too.

  Breathe Carolina was the 1st EDM band I went to.I went alone by the end of the night I wasn't lonely anymore.I would definitely go again to get a picture with David Schmitt.<3
