Sabrina Claudio, Gallant
Recommended
Alternative R&B singer Gallant’s voice sounds like if Maxwell’s sky-high falsetto was anchored by Usher’s hearty tone and romantic runs. Gallant’s star has been steadily rising ever since his 2015 hit “Weight in Gold” took off; his studio debut, 2016’s Ology, received critical acclaim for its lyricism, distinct sound, and vocal proficiency. Recently, he and airy-voiced singer Sabrina Claudio (this show’s headliner) collaborated on “Compromise,” and his other new single “Sleep on It” is also a bop. While this time he’s appearing at the Crystal as a “special guest” on Claudio’s “Truth Is” tour, Gallant’s opening set will be the highlight.
