Blue Medusa made its live debut at Huxleys Neue Welt in Berlin on September 4, 2026, appearing as a surprise headliner during the Corrupted Blood Club Show. The performance was also streamed on Twitch, giving fans outside the venue a first look at Alissa White-Gluz’s new band.
The four-song set featured “Flying Monkey,” “Crocodile,” “The Wolf You Feed,” and “Checkmate.” It was a brief introduction, focused on bringing the band and its material to the stage rather than delivering a full headline show. With no extended set to draw from, each song helped establish a first impression of Blue Medusa as a live act.
The surprise appearance gave the debut much of its impact. The event had sold out before its full lineup was revealed, so Blue Medusa arrived before an audience already eager to see what the night would bring. That setting made the first performance feel like a discovery shared by the room, rather than a show announced weeks in advance.
The Twitch broadcast carried that moment beyond the venue. Fans who could not attend were able to watch the debut as it happened, and footage of the set continued to circulate afterward. For a new band, it meant the first live show also became its first widely seen performance.
Onstage, the group took a direct, composed approach to introducing its material. The short set offered an early look at how the lineup works together, though the available footage gives only a limited basis for judging details such as the vocal mix and instrumental balance. A longer show would give the band more room to build momentum and reveal how it handles changes in pace.
That is the main limit of this debut: four songs can introduce Blue Medusa, but they cannot show its full range. The Berlin set worked best as an opening statement, putting the musicians and their songs in front of an audience for the first time.
The show gave Blue Medusa a clear starting point in a strong heavy-music setting. Its surprise arrival and livestream made that first step visible well beyond Berlin; future performances will show how the material and stage presence develop.
