Just hours after announcing it online, Charli XCX turned a quiet Friday night in London into one of the most talked-about fan events of the week. The pop innovator and her husband, George Daniel of The 1975, hosted a surprise “In Conversation” event in Exmouth Market before following it up with an intimate DJ set packed with deep cuts, fan favorites and teasers of unreleased music.
