SAULT opened All Points East 2025 with their second live show, a five-hour joint performance with Cleo Sol and Chronixx on the East Stage.
SAULT, the anonymous British collective whose Untitled (Rise) was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize, opened All Points East in Victoria Park, Tower Hamlets, on Friday 15 August 2025. Cleo Sol and Chronixx shared the headline.
The group is led by the producer Inflo and the singer and songwriter Cleo Sol, and many of its collaborators stay unnamed. Its records mix R&B, gospel, house and disco, and often put Black-centred issues first.
SAULT released five albums in its first three years without playing a show, giving an interview or making a video. Its first concert, at Drumsheds in London in December 2023, came four years after its debut.
This was only the second. The three acts played one five-hour performance on the East Stage, under the name Provenance, with a choir, an orchestra and a pyramid joined to the stage by a runway.
Cleo Sol addressed the crowd, and “Free”, “Let Me Go” and “I Just Wanna Dance” came in quick succession. Kirk Franklin, Nao and Ms. Dynamite also played on the day.
