Troye Sivan stepped onto the stage in front of hundreds of screaming fans at the sold-out Houston concert on Thursday and delivered the opening lines of his song “Bite.”

“Kiss me on the mouth and set me free/Sing me like a choir,” Sivan sang as the crowd surged forward in an attempt to get as close to him as possible.

At House of Blues, a music concert hall in Houston, the 20-year-old Australian singer and​ songwriter​ delivered his final act of the United States part of his Blue Neighbourhood world tour.

The streets of downtown Austin have been abuzz this past week with energy, filled with more than 30,000 out-of-town visitors gathering for the internationally known SXSW Festival. On Wednesday night, David Adamiak and his Mathrock band called Covet made their SXSW debut.

Adamiak, 24, is the bass player for this Northern California based, three-member band, and acted as the band’s spokesman during the show at The Hideout, a funky, after-hours coffeehouse featuring an intimate acoustic stage.
