Charli XCX and George Daniel gave fans in London an unexpected night out on May 30, hosting a surprise in-conversation event followed by a DJ afterparty. The announcement appeared only hours before the event through Charli’s b.sides Instagram account, turning the gathering into a last-minute moment for fans who were able to make it.
The session took place at Exmouth Market and centered on creativity, songwriting, collaboration, and the way both artists think about making music. Journalist Shaad D’Souza moderated the conversation, which kept the setting close and informal rather than promotional.
After the talk, the night continued at Coin Laundry, where Charli and George performed a DJ set. Fans heard a mix of club tracks, remixes, familiar favorites, and snippets of unreleased material. One lighter moment came when Charli played The 1975’s Chocolate, drawing a visibly embarrassed reaction from George.
