On July 12th, Kaleb performed to a packed house at Jazzy’s Cabaret in New Haven, Connecticut, where attendees like Savanah Lynn and Mollie Goodrich traveled from Pennsylvania after discovering him on TikTok.

It was totally worth it.” Mollie echoed this sentiment, expressing excitement at catching him live before his fame skyrocketed.
