Lola Young, the rising star in concert in Paris
On February 13, 2025, Lola Young, the up-and-coming British singer, will give an exceptional concert at the Alhambra in Paris. The 22-year-old artist, who came to prominence with her hit single Messy, promises an unforgettable evening in a sold-out venue. The concert has already been sold out for several weeks, testifying to the excitement surrounding this new voice.
A dazzling career
Born in London in 2002, Lola Young is a singer-songwriter whose style blends pop, soul, R’n’B and even hip-hop. A graduate of the world-famous Brit School, home to such talents as Amy Winehouse and Adele, Lola Young’s unique voice and heartfelt lyrics are sure to please. With three projects to her credit, she has established herself as a key figure on the new British music scene.
Her latest album, This Wasn’t Meant For You Anyway, released in June 2024, marked a turning point in her career. One of her tracks, Messy, has become a true generational anthem. Thanks to its virality on TikTok and other social networks, the song has accumulated over 1.28 million streams and features in the French and international charts.
“Messy”: a generational anthem
Messy perfectly embodies Lola Young’s style: a complex composition, blending low, broken vocals, powerful choruses and rich instrumentation, dominated by two distinct guitars. The lyrics, which advocate self-confidence and emancipation, resonate with young listeners. The simple yet powerful video highlights the artist’s raw attitude and emotions.
Lola Young also collaborated with Tyler, The Creator on the album CHROMAKOPIA, reinforcing her international reputation. Their duet Like Him surpassed 100 million streams, confirming her status as a rising star.
Rendezvous in Paris
This concert at the Alhambra will mark the start of her European tour, before appearing at major festivals such as Lollapalooza Paris and the Rock Werchter Festival. For those who weren’t lucky enough to get a ticket, there’s still time to discover Lola Young this summer on the stages of the biggest festivals.
