Charli XCX and Troye Sivan Announce Sweat Tour, Coming to Miami in October

Pop pioneers Charli XCX and Troye Sivan have announced they are going on tour together across North America this fall. Dubbed "Charli XCX & Troye Sivan Present: Sweat," it kicks off September 14 in Detriot, with the pair making their way down to Miami on October 5 at the Kaseya Center. British singer Shygirl will serve as the opener.

Hailing from the UK, Charli XCX is set to release her sixth album, the club-oriented Brat, on June 7. She's already teased the project with the release singles "Von Dutch," "Club Classics," and "B2b," as well as Boiler Room set in Brooklyn, dubbed "Partygirl," that broke the record for the most RSVPs a show has ever received. Brat is the follow-up to her 2022 album, Crash, which Charli affectionally dubbed her "sell-out" record.

Charli has always distinguished herself from the other pop girlies in that if she really wanted to be a chart-topping singer, she probably could be. She's penned hits for Camila Cabello ("Señorita) and Selena Gomez ("Same Old Love") and is perhaps best known for the track "Boom Clap," which appeared on the soundtrack to the film The Fault in Our Stars, and her feature on Iggy Azalea's "Fancy" (which she also co-wrote). However, after linking up with producers like Sophie and PC Music's A.G. Cook, Charli's career and songwriting took a more avant-garde turn, beginning with her 2016 EP, Vroom Vroom. Since then, she's been a pop underground darling, with critics often lauding her work for its forward-thinking approach.
Australian singer Troye Sivan's career is a bit like Charli's in that he's also recognized in the underground pop sphere. Sivan started as a YouTuber before jumping into a career as a musician, releasing his debut album, Blue Neighbourhood, in 2015. While he's had a successful career, he really came into his own on his most recent album, 2023's Something to Give Each Other, an unapologetically queer project that features some of the best pop melodies released this decade, with singles like "Rush" and "Got Me Started" being particular standouts.

It makes complete sense that Charli and Troy would go on tour together. Beyond their pop inventiveness and devoted queer fan bases, the pair have collaborated on tracks like "1999" and "2099."
