New York City was brimming with positive energy as a multitude of concertgoers flocked to see a headlining set from piano house queen LP Giobbi at the Knockdown Center in Queens on Saturday, November 18.
Establishing herself as more than just a producer and DJ, LP Giobbi delivered an uplifting and energetic performance that was all-encompassing. The riveting experience sent the crowd into a dancing frenzy as she injected vocal samples, performed the piano live, and shook the stage with her signature tracks off her recent Light Places album.
The artist kicked off her performance with the iconic vocal sample of Sophie Hawley-Weld from Sofi Tukker in the joint LP Giobbi album collaboration, “All My Life.” Enveloping the crowd with gorgeous piano melodies, the artist seamlessly infused vocal samples from Goose’s Reimagined mix of “All I Need.” The artist picked up the pace with other notable releases, “Follow the Loop” “Forever and a Day” and her most recent release titled, “Waiting” off of Diplo’s Higher Ground label which skyrocketed the energy of the crowd to another level.
Joining the artist on stage was vocalist Caroline Byrne performing, “Feels Just Like It” and further adding to her set was opening act Bad Snacks who performed a spellbinding performance on the violin as LP Giobbi shined on the decks to a burgeoning climax of “Georgia.”
The electrifying concert continued with her release off her new Yes Yes Yes imprint with Defected Records, “Time Expands” and closing out her set was the LP Giobbi Club Edits of “All In A Dream,” “Can’t Let You Go,” “Free” (Do What U Want) and her remix of Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer.” The refreshing display of talent left the audience gratified for being able to witness it all first-hand live.
Light Places which was released back in May showcases the depth and versatility of the artist and transcends the dance music genre by merging elements of soul with enveloping bass lines, piano insttrumentals, guitar riffs, and emotive vocals. The album is loaded with an array of LP Giobbi’s most distinguished releases that have accumulated millions of streams on Spotify.
The artist is currently on tour to support her most recent album, Light Places in addition to hosting a series of afterparties to support her new imprint, Yes Yes Yes launching on Defected Records. It is no surprise that the in-demand artist has sold out practically all of her shows from San Francisco, to Boston, to Chicago, and even Canada.
