Brat summer touched down in the Balearic Islands earlier this month when Charli XCX brought her Partygirl party night to Ibiza’s legendary club Amnesia for a very packed and very buzzy Boiler Room set on July 13.

The artist of the summer launched the set with Brat‘s “365,” then blazed through the album — with tracks like “Guess,” “Club classics” and more — while the crowd writhed behind her. Wearing a chic cream colored top and occasionally clutching a glass of champagne, the artist also welcomed guests including The Dare, Zoe Glitter, Alex Chapman and George Daniel, who altogether incorporated songs including Rico Nasty and Boys Noize’s “Arintintin,” Troye Sivan’s “Rush,” Da Hool’s “Meet Her at the Loveparade” and an edit of Robert Miles’ 1995 club classic “Children.”

The night’s lineup also featured Shygirl, Romy and Ladies of Leisure, the latter of whom delivered us very FOMO-inducing footage directly from the event. Watch the complete 95 minute performance below.

“The reason I love electronic music and clubs and DJs so much is that everything is endless,” XCX said in her recent Billboard cover story. “Everything can be repurposed, reimagined. As a pop writer, I find that exciting. It was cool to use Boiler Room as a space to demonstrate that artists often make five different versions of a song and the song that is put out is not the only one.”

Two Brat tracks are currently on the Hot 100, with “360” at No. 55 and “Apple” at No. 81. The album is also dominating Hot Dance/Electronic Songs with 16 tracks on the chart, the highest of which, “Apple,” is at No. 4. Brat currently sits at No. 14 on the Billboard 200.

Hayley Williams Brings Jenny Lewis, Jack Antonoff & More Surprise Guests to the Stage at Newport Folk Fest

Williams sang Rilo Kiley's "Silver Lining" with Lewis and Bleachers' "I Wanna Get Better" with Antonoff during her set in Newport, R.I.

A set billed “Hayley Williams & Friends” at the 2026 Newport Folk Festival featured a long list of guests taking the stage with the Paramore frontwoman on Friday (July 24). Among the guests joining Williams for her headlining slot live at Fort Adams State Park in Newport, R.I., were Jack Antonoff, Lucy Dacus and Jenny Lewis.

During her 16-song setlist at the fest, which started with her 2025 album title track “Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party” and ended with a group cover of the Bill Withers classic “Lean on Me,” Williams performed “I Wanna Get Better” with Jack Antonoff — his band Bleachers’ debut single back in 2014 — and was also joined by him on guitar for her Ego Death song”Good Ol’ Days.” The pair shared a hug ahead of “I Wanna Get Better,” which had Antonoff and Williams harmonizing on vocals.
