On Friday 15 November, GRAMMY nominated, multi-platinum chart-topping global superstar The Kid LAROI performed live in Nova’s Red Room at iconic live music venue Selina’s at Coogee Bay Hotel in Sydney.
Up close and personal with the Nova’s Red Room crowd, The Kid LAROI treated the crowd to “a little bit of a different show”, stripping back his chart-topping hits and taking the “opportunity to have some fun” with his fans in the room. The Aussie export is set to take the stage at Commbank Stadium tomorrow night in Sydney before heading to Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne.
Laroi welcomed the crowd with his recent track ‘Baby I’m Back’ before welcoming the audience and even giving a shout-out to the VIP section. The singer explained, “This is pretty special because I’ve never really done something like this… and it feels really good to be doing it back home.”
The stripped-back set list included ‘Girls’, ‘Nights Like This’, ‘Heaven’, ‘Where Does Your Spirit Go?’, and ‘Without You’. The charming superstar chatted with the audience in between songs, even handing out some ‘friends and family’ tickets to his Sydney show.
A highlight for the night was ‘Stay’, before which he asked if there were any Justin Bieber fans in the audience – a loud cheer filled Selina’s. The Kid said of the hit that it was a pleasure to write with Bieber and that he actually still liked the song after three or four years, “which is surprising”.
The Kid LAROI finished the performance with ‘Love Again’ from his debut album, The First Time, and the crowd belted out every word, encapsulating the true spirit of Australia’s premier intimate live music brand.
