JC Stewart, opening for The Vamps at Eventim Apollo, was greeted by huge screams from the almost full venue before even stepping on stage. He opened with upcoming single \u2018Don\u2019t Say You Love Me\u2019 (out on September 24th) and quickly got the crowd singing and waving along. This was followed by \u2018Break My Heart\u2019 before he switched from his guitar to a piano and sang his single \u2018Loud\u2019, a slower, sadder song that saw the venue lit up by hundreds of phones in the air.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

He followed this with a guitar cover of Cyndi Lauper\u2019s \u2018Girls Just Wanna Have Fun\u2019 that got a huge reception and had the whole venue singing and dancing. He finished with \u2018I Need You To Hate Me\u2019. It was a short but very sweet set from JC Stewart who surely has big things ahead of him and probably won himself some new fans with his opening set on Friday!<\/p>\n
