Rising star Jessie Murph, whose genre-blending sound spans pop, country, trap, and blues, delivered a powerful headline set at Raleigh’s Red Hat Amphitheater on September 4, 2025. Her Worldwide Hysteria Tour—inspired by her emotional, genre-fluid album Sex Hysteria (released July 18, 2025 via Columbia) —spans numerous U.S. cities such as Birmingham, Orlando, Nashville, Seattle, Portland, and Los Angeles, with further dates scheduled through November 2025 (Wikipedia, jessiemurphtour.com). Backed by a dance troupe and choreography she intimately shaped, her performance wove narrative and movement, shifting from raw, seated vocal moments to full-scale choreographed numbers that drove connection and energy. Fans responded with ecstatic singing, cheers, and nonstop engagement. The stage visuals featured moody yet vibrant lighting tailored to her storytelling, complemented by precise soundboard management. Official merchandise—including tees, hoodies, and exclusive prints—sold briskly. Her career, beginning with TikTok roots and bolstered by certified hit singles like “Always Been You,” “Wild Ones” (with Jelly Roll), and the charting “Blue Strips,” solidifies her as an emotionally resonant high-energy performer. This performance underscored why she’s become a rapidly rising, critically recognized artist. Visit her official site here: Jessie Murph.
