CORTIS Tells NYC to Put Their Phones Down at First U.S. Solo Concert: The 7 Best Moments
With less than a year on the scene, the five-piece performed like pros at its first full concert in the States for a sold-out show at Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden.
In their first-ever U.S. solo concert at the Infosys Theater in Madison Square Garden, CORTIS showcased their impressive discography and captivating stage presence to a sold-out audience. The two-part show began with nearly all of the group's songs, accompanied by choreography and striking visuals projected onto tall LED screens in the background.
During the second half of the concert, CORTIS revisited many of the same tracks but in a looser format, with a focus on the band members themselves and more deliberate camera angles. One standout moment was the group's spontaneous shout-out to New York's NBA Finals victory, just feet away from the Knicks' home arena, demonstrating their strong connection to the city.
Another notable aspect of the performance was the group's ability to keep the audience engaged throughout the entire setlist, prompting many concert-goers to put down their phones and fully immerse themselves in the music. This clear comfort level on stage and the band's ability to connect with their fans made CORTIS' New York concert an unforgettable experience.
