Totally in awe and admiration 😍 I’ve discovered @samarajoysings thanks to Spotify’s algorithm in 2021 when she released her first recording of ‘Everything Happens to Me’. I instantly fell in love with her voice and rendition. I eagerly waited for her first album release. I’m a fan since !! October 2022 she came to a bursting and over crowded @newmorningparis , where she blew my mind and sang live even beyond my expectations 😍. Last night I saw a 24 year old young woman of exceptional talent and professionalism singing 2 1/2 hours for the first time to a sold out Olympia in Paris. Ella, Sarah, Dinah, Billie must be extremely proud of her and Abbey too! The crowd went wild and I cried 🥲 … tears of joy and so much bursting emotion ❤️‍🔥. A big Kudos to her band too : Evan Sherman (drums), Connor Rohrer (piano), Michael Migliore (bass), Jason Charos (trumpet), David Mason (alto sax), Kendrick McCallister (tenor sax) and Donavan Austin (trombone). Samara Joy McLendon (born November 11, 1999) is an American jazz singer. She released her self-titled debut album in 2021 and was subsequently named Best New Artist by JazzTimes. Her second album, Linger Awhile(2022), reached number one on the BillboardJazz Albums chart. At the 2023 Grammy Awards, she won the awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album and Best New Artist. Her 2023 single “Tight” won Best Jazz Performance at the following ceremony. . My clips don’t really do justice of the magnificent performance I’ve witnessed, I was too busy watching, listening and crying 🥲😁 … but I urge you to go and witness awesomeness if she travels near you … !!!!

Fantastic standing room only sold out concert we attended after the Paris Marathon, and I had no problem staying on my feet. Huge band with great singers, including on this date sexy, beautiful Holybrune. American-style talk box funk (reminiscent of Roger Troutman and Zapp) alive and well in France. Great music and an entertaining show.

My first time at Olympia, the venue was incredible with friendly staff and crowd. In fact, before arriving 30 minutes before the show, there were very few people walking around or at the bar. The concert itself sitting in middle row of Category 1 was fantastic, though maybe LP was pressed for time in being able to talk to her fans? It seemed a more 'professional get-up' than her previous concerts at La Cigale, so please let me know when VIP tickets are on sale... LP herself, said she'd been dreaming of this venue for ten years...

Absolument incroyable. La voix de Conor en live est si puissante, l'énergie qu'ils avaient tous sur scène étaient insane. Les lumières étaient superbes et on le son était très bien gérés, on entend très bien la voix ainsi que les instruments même devant la scène (malheureusement ce n'était pas trop le cas pour la première partie) . La maitrise vocale de Conor est vraiment impressionnante et surtout ça se voit qu'ils prennent du plaisir a être sur scène et c'est contagieux Je crois que c'était un de mes concert préférés 🩶

One of the best days in my life! The show was even better than what I expected, we screamed, we laughed, we cried and we jumped to the point we thought the floor was going to break…Everybody should go to a show like this!

Magical. Perfect. Crazy. I’ve lost my vocabulary for how good this show was. Favorite artist. Went there on my own, made 5 amazing friends there. I cannot describe how amazing was this moment. It felt out of time and I can only call that a dream becoming true. The Olympia made it so perfect, as it was a small room and I was almost in front of the procellium.

J’attendais depuis 2016 de voir NF en concert. Un rêve qui vient de se réaliser… J’arrive toujours pas à y croire. Merci à notre Goat pour cette séance de Thérapie et merci à tous, on a fait trembler l’Olympia ! 🇫🇷

My musical spiritual father! 🙌🏾 Except Oliver Charles, I discovered most of this band that night, it was a beautiful show as usual! 🎶✨ I mean it's Ben Harper anyway 😏 💕 Missed Leon Mobley though. Hope to see him again next time.

Tout était parfait! De la voix au jeu de scène tout en passant par la prouesse guitaristique. D'autant que pour fêter mon anniversaire qui était le jour même, pas meilleur endroit que son concert. I am the one and only birthday girl qui s'est vu souhaiter "happy birthday" en direct par Mr Gibbons en personne puis se faire offrir le LP dédicacé par ses soins devant une salle de l'Olympia me chantant en cœur "joyeux anniversaire". I will never forget that incredible moment! 💜💜💜

Les concerts de rock assis, ce n'est plus possible ! Pauvre ambiance dans un Olympia au public de papis et mamies. Le volume de la guitare est clair mais très fort, dommage aussi de ne pas distribuer des bouchons d'oreilles à l'entrée. Et comble du mauvais goût, une entracte au bout d'une heure de concert pour que les vip passent 20min avec Monsieur Satriani. C'était la dernière fois que je viendrais voir Satriani, au public vieillissant et l'ambiance moyenne pour un tarif très élevé.

The setlist was a bit disappointing, mainly old songs, only 3 from the new album... The mood was not as good as usual, maybe because now people don't really know the songs, only the main titles... Really not one of my favorite.

Just a trip troughtout everys passiones lived in my life. From my early age on rock - punck rock - the Base They Made for the Misic coming After and YEEEAAAHHH 2 Hours No Stop of Energic Pleasure and Wet really Wet dancing singing and crazy reaction We Really Need in an Historical Concert. GREAT ATMOSPHERE CREATED AND .... I was really happy to the exchange with my "neighbours" really FUNS and make My "ITALIAN" Shiting guy for let move away the NOT sane Peoples in the night.

Frank’s voice is still amazing at his age, but they played a lot of their more recent songs that are way less original and fun, so the momentum of the concert was a bit up and down. But really cool to see them!!

Pour la partie JB seul magique encore, la seconde partie est discutable car JD ne convaint malheureusement pas, il est piètre musicien et chanteur. Le groupe est topissime, la nouvelle recrue à la batterie assure, le clavier et chantuer qui pallie la voix peu assurée de JD, sans parler de l’excellentissime Ronda Smith. Mais il faut respecter les choix du maître de la Stratocaster…

Great evening! It wasn't long before everyone got up and grooved to the music. Of course at 79 years old the high notes were not there but that was less than 5% of the performance. The rest was sublime. The backing vocals were spot on and the quality was of the music was like the original recordings. Quite a feat for a live show.

On est tous venus pour lui, mais réciproquement, ça c’est vue qu’il était là pour nous, il nous a montré une performance incroyable, on a vraiment le sentiment d’être sa famille, ce n’est pas des mots en l’air de sa part. Il n’y a pas eu un instant où nous étions pas à chanter ou à bouger avec lui, il était ému plusieurs fois, c’était vraiment un magnifique concert, n’oublions pas les performances de Adam et Bens ! Tout comme l’intervention du staff, ils nous ont donner de l’eau après les Nova Twins, elles aussi étaient merveilleuses, pleine d’énergie et une performance intense ! Je rajouterai pour yungblud, malgré quelques mouvements de foule de trop (pogo), c’était incroyable!

I have so much love for this one of a kind band ❤️ they killed it as usual ! 🔥 That one was really special, a night filled with a lot of emotion as they did Beard Guy 🧔🏻 proud 🙌🏾 He's in our hearts forever 💫 #GBNF 💙

Amazing performance, 200% dedication and perfect execution as always. I only wished that the sound mix was better (so much mic saturation, larsens, noisy mix, and unusefully over-loud) and more time was let for AB (Shinedown and Raven Age are ok but it was way to long before Alter Bridge could finally start, pretty much late for a Monday show, and stopped a bit early -usual time for a Monday though but it was a bit short- without encore). Thanks you anyway Alter Bridge for touring frequently in France with amazing shows each time!!

Assez surpris de retrouver Opeth entouré d'écrans vidéo, mais le résultat était assez bluffant ! Un son pas toujours au rendez vous, le morceau de l'album Watershed "the lotus enter" a eu de nombreuses saturations dans les graves. On a pu apprecier des morceaux peu souvent joué en live à part le sempiternel "délivrance " Opeth a une grande quantité d'excellents morceaux, on aimerait tellement que les concerts durent plus longtemps même après 2 heures.

Concert véritablement inoubliable ! Tant d'énergie, de joie et de talent. Très belle première partie par Joey Dosik (et Theo Karaman à la batterie. Mention spéciale pour la reprise a capella magnifique de "Back Pocket". Frissons garantis grâce au chant sublime de Antwaun Stanley. Merveilleux à chaque instant.
