Urban Heat

Urban Heat in Memphis was everything I hoped for and then some. ✨ My spouse and I first saw them back in 2022 at GasaGasa in New Orleans, and that night genuinely changed something in me — it was one of those rare shows where you walk out feeling like your DNA just got rearranged in the best way possible. Fast forward to this year in Memphis: same band, same magnetic energy, but this time surrounded by amazing friends. And let me tell you, the vibe was electric. I’m an introvert by nature, and usually the closest I get to dancing is tapping my foot while clutching my drink like a security blanket. But at an Urban Heat show? All bets are off — I dance. Like, actual dancing. (Which should tell you just how powerful their music really is.) What makes them stand out isn’t just the pulsing beats, moody synths, or sheer fire of their live performance. It’s that they’re also some of the kindest, most approachable humans off-stage. They’re the kind of band that makes you feel like you’re part of something, not just a face in the crowd. So, Urban Heat in Memphis = 10/10, would absolutely lose my introvert cool and dance again. 🖤🔥
