Editor's Note: Word in Massachusetts is that a tornado touched down over the weekend, marking the first February twister in our state's history. Around the same time, a different kind of force of nature hit Royale in Boston Friday and Saturday night (February 24 and 25) in the shape of Kehlani, the 21-year-old R&B upstart who sold out both nights at the Theatre District club. With opening assistance from London R&B singer Ella Mai, Kahlani rolled into town with Grammy nomination momentum and the freshness of last month's debut LP SweetSexySavage. Greg Gaffney was in the room for Vanyaland on the opening night to capture visuals from both performers, and you can scan through his full gallery below.
