The band – Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic – have taken the world by storm with a collection of songs that have spawned more than a billion TikTok views, 20 million YouTube plays and 100 million streams.
And they delighted their Yorkshire fans with a brilliant show at The Piece Hall on Thursday.
Opening with I Hate This Tune, Adored and Heading For The Door, Roy and Otis had the crowd in the palm of their hands right the way through a 23-song set which also featured global smash Who’s Your Boyfriend, Say Something and Moody.
They also delivered their smash hit covers of Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s Murder On The Dancefloor and The Cranberries’ epic Linger.
Joining Royel Otis on the night were acclaimed goth-glam pop star Luvcat, fresh from her set at the Isle of Wight Festival, and Sheffield indie band The Rosadocs.
TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall 2026 continues on Friday with Ellie Saxx before Empire of The Sun headline on Sunday.
