Every time i hear these songs playing on the radio, i can’t keep my feet from stomping and my hips from swaying.
Known for her song “Trouble is A Friend”, “The Show”, and from her new album Two “Heart Skips a beat”, Australian singer and songwriter, Lenka had her first live concert last Sunday night, October 09 at the World Trade Center Hall D as the last country on her Asian Tour, which i watched with my sister Abby.
We’re in front row! yay <3
The show was started with the performances of 3 front acts namely Taken By Cars, Tricia Garcia and Barbie Almalbis and her band, who never fails the crowd with the power of her music.

After 20 minutes of waiting for the sound check, Lenka finally set on-stage opening her show with “Heart Skips a Beat” while playing on her little piano, that makes everyone screamingly-sing along with her.And as Lenka said, I’m trying hard not to resist the joy when she finally came out.
On her aqua blue garb, Lenka totally gave a great performance last Sunday singing her tracks from her self-titled album and Two album. She was so cute and lovely to watch dancing even if she’s pregnant.
It was so funny when they sang their last song even they hadn’t played yet the song “The Show”. When they said goodbye, they immediately precede to the back stage and it was totally lights off. Then the crowd was screaming for “more… more… more…” and “Lenka! Lenka! Lenka!”. After a few seconds, the band was already on the stage. And Lenka said that she’s really expecting that we will ask for more!We definitely enjoyed her performance closing the program singing with of course “The Show”. lol I thought im gonna go home without seeing her performing this.
This wasn’t the first time that Lenka and her band performs in the country since they had done several mall tours last December 2009 for her debut album. Lenka also shares that Filipinos are so obsessed with Christmas since she’d seen a lot of decors based from her previous visit.

After the show, meet and greet happened at the backstage and i was one the the lucky lenka’s music lovers who had a chance to see her. The organizers are very strict that they didn’t allowed dslr to take for photos during the show and even take a photo with her during the meet and greet. In addition to that, she can only sign one item for your 5 seconds chance of seeing her!
Despite that, I am still so lucky to have a 5 second conversation with my favorite musician. After watching her show, she liven me up to share the loveliness of life through music. To create music.
Here’s the sneak peak of her performance.
More videos will be uploaded soon…
