OK, let me try to cover everything that happened ever since LP landed in Bogota (5th October), received a very warm welcome and started her Tour of Latin/South America. On the next day LP took part in a press conference organized by Páramo Presenta and Criteria Entertainment. I’ve tried to establish wheter the conference was recorded, sadly without any luck.

Though, I still hope someone got it on ‘tape’ as well. Then LP given interviews to W Radio Colombia and Radioaktiva. For now nothing has been shared. In the evening LP performed for a very excited crowd that gathered in full force and embraced LP with open arms.

In the first two songs (‘Strange’ and ‘When we’re high’) the public’s hysteria was so extreme that it was difficult to enjoy LP’s performance. It wasn’t until ‘Dreamer’ that we could fully grasp that her voice transmits much more during live show than in the recordings.”

It wasn’t until the fourth or fifth song, as usual in the capital, that the crowd felt the need for the air and had to slow down. LP has the ability to seduce you with the first chords of a song, her characteristic sound is presented in songs of all kinds.”

Accompanied by a very good band, LP performed a small cover of ‘Paint in Black’ by the Rolling Stones, and throughout the concert she also demonstrated her ability to play instruments,”

The most anticipated moment came when, after an hour and a half of the concert, LP sang ‘Lost on You’, a song with which the concert ended.” Check out all the bras that flew to the stage!
“In addition to being a great singer, LP is a renowned composer, with songs for artists such as Rihanna, Backstreet Boys, Christina Aguilera, Rita Ora and Cher. As I spoke with @natipibo, one is left wanting to be in a show of unplugged version of LP, which must be fantastic, since then you could fully enjoy her voice.” I think we can all agree with this sentiment.

I hope I was able to gather all that was worth sharing, it took me several hours to put it all together (6 to be exact), not to mention all the additional time for research and everything else. Anyway, I hope you will enjoy it. Tomorrow LP will be performing in Quito, Ecuador. Currently the situation is very tense in the capital city due to the recent political situation.
I hope everything will go accordingly to plan, though from what I have read it will be tough to travel especially for those outside the capital of Ecuador.
Anna from Poland. I have been a blogger for a long time, but more in a royal field. Since 'meeting' LP through her music and as a person, a lot has changed. If I'm not working on my blog, I work as a teacher. I love to travel, read & dance. I sing & play uke when no one listens. Music was always a big part of my life.
