Lily Allen, daughter of actor Keith Allen, is an English singer-songwriter known for her outspoken attitude and Myspace success story.
Born in 1985, Lily is the daughter of Welsh comic Keith Allen and film producer Alison Owen. After Keith left the family, trouble began for Lily as they were forced to live on a council estate, struggling to get by. During this time Lily was experiencing difficulties at school as she bounced between establishments, often getting expelled for her drinking and smoking.
When she was 11, her musical talents were spotted by Rachel Santesso who began to teach Lily to sing and after she reduced an audience to tears singing in a school assembly, Lily knew music was something she was going to pursue.
When she was 15 she dropped out of school and began to chase up deals. She bounced around a few labels, using her dad’s connections as leverage until in 2005, Regal Recordings gave Lily £25000 to finance a record. Given how busy the label were with other, higher profile releases, Lily was forced to operate on her own. She set up a Myspace page and began to post demos which instantly caught the public’s attention, building up an online following until the press had to take notice.
The Observer, much to her label’s surprise, ran a feature on Lily in early 2006 and then, with a renewed sense of confidence in her, Regal Recordings released Lily’s debut album ‘Alright, Still’ in July 2006. The album went to number 2 in the charts and turned triple platinum which was just the start of a long stint of success.
Her follow up ‘It’s Not Me, Its you’ hit number one and, after a long hiatus during which she started a family, she hit number one again with ‘Sheezus’ in 2014. Years later it’s become clear that dropping out of school was a very good idea for Lily Allen.
Read moreLily Allen's show was probably one of the best performances I've seen in a very long time. This was my first time seeing her.
Having LolaWolf as her opening act was one of her best business decisions.
I could feel Lily Allen's energy the entire performance. I loved the collective symbolism of her set, song choices and wardrobe. The baby bottles on stage represent her being a mother of two young children. The song choices she made were nostalgic and familial centered. Most of the songs she choice from her new album were about her husband and children. Her rainbow colored wardrobe represented not only a youthful energy, but her support for people of all kinds including the LGBT community.
Overall, the show was fun. She makes you laugh. She makes you cry. I rarely ever go to a show and wish that it wouldn't end.
Lily Allen is very talented vocally. She knows how to grab the attention of her audience. She made the audience feel like they were a part of her community when she asked everyone to light up their cell phones and then took a selfie with her audience in the background.
She is not as vulgar or aggressive as she is portrayed in the media. She's an opinionated, intelligent, talented woman that is using her talents to make a difference in the world.
I can not wait for her to go on tour again.
Hey,
I love Lily Allen and her songs!!!
However, the experience was not great. I had waited on queue 2 hours ahead to get good seat, and yes this is my choice to start with, so I don't complaint about it, but it meant that I had high expectation for the show and a great experience.
When it was the show time (7pm), I am very exciting to get in and watch the show. Unfortunately the show started 2 hours late. I am not sure whos fault it was, but it was an unpleasant waiting time... and showed off an unprofessional concert plan... when it finally started, the background lighting was too bright. I can barely see the singer, had to close my eyes most time, and not just me, I see others did the same too...
I wonder if the lighting department tested it from the audience perspective?
I didn't have a good experience with lights at the other show of "Cigarettes after sex" either, but it was way worse with the LiLy Allen show...
I do love the light effects from those standing light poles though, but the background light! It is wayyyyyyy too heavy.
Not sure if I would come back again. If I do, I would love to see my favourite singer and not closing my eyes all the time.
The Lily Allen experience was certainly one to remember. The stage was set up with baby bottles—an indication of her life after her 2009 hiatus. She married and had two kids! She first started her show off with "sheezus". A song about her return to the music industry. Another one of her memorable songs was "LDN". When the winds group homogenized with the proccusions all the fans started to scream so loud (including myself). The lyrics are hilarious. Next that I remember was "not fair" and the 10 year old song "smile". Everyone bumped to the beat and sang along to the lyrics that I would have to describe as catchy, sassy, clever, funny, and let's not forget FUN! Towards the end Lily played "22", "L8CMMR", "Fuck you" and finished off with one of the best: "hard out here". Though I wish she played "air Balloon" and "Knock 'Em Out" I was abundantly satisfied with last night's set list. I recommend Lily for those who love artists that are really care free and "out there" lyrically. Frankly, I'd go to tonight's show if I didn't have to go to work the next morning. It was a great show! Loved every minute!
I have been a fan of Lily Allen live shows since the beginning. Quite literally the very beginning. She performed at the T in the Park festival on a stage for up and coming artists in 2006 and during this performance she was told that her debut single “Smile” had gone to number one. Years later she still describes this as one of the most special gigs for her and having been there- I’m inclined to agree that it really was special!
If I was asked to sum up a Lily Allen show in one word it would be simply “fun”. Her onstage banter follows no script and she is charming and witty throughout. Lily Allen is an artist who doesn’t take herself too seriously. Her lyrics are clever and funny and she has a brilliant stage presence.
I have also seen Lily in a variety of venues. From tiny unknown stages at festivals to Glastonbury’s main stage and from small sweaty gig venues to 10,000 capacity arenas. She manages to keep the feel of the gigs the same no matter where she’s playing and this is what makes her such a unique performer.
Lily Allen is such a personality. She really is an entertainer. I lived in North London for two years and was really hoping to hear 'Littlest Things' - a song that is near and dear to me. Although that song was not part of the set, I was blown away at how genuine and real, sweet, funny, honest, and of course - legitimately killing the game on the mic. The show was so good and I am so glad I went to see and support her. I also was so excited for the show I forgot my phone in my car. At first, I was super bummed not to record favorite songs and get a photo with her at the end. However, it allowed me to be completely present the entire show. It felt like a really special show (for me) because she ended with my favorite song on her new album, Apples, then when we cheered non stop for 5 minutes she came back out and ended the entire show with another favorite, Fuck You. I'm holding out for her next show to hear her sing, "Littlest Things" at her next show.
I was a little disappointed, I'm sorry to say.
I'll separate the facts that the support, Fryars, alternated between pitifully dull and physically painful to listen to and she came on quite late which meant a lot of standing around.
Instead, I was principally disappointed by Lily's limited engagement with the audience which made for quite a low-energy gig. She spent a lot of time walking back and forth across the stage and avoiding eye contact with us. We were all pretty up for it and if she had wanted to, we could have had a real party.
The sound was good and she did all the big songs. The extensive visual rig was largely wasted as the LD seemed to not want to over-shadow the lit-up baby bottles which festooned the stage.
I just wish that Lily had come across as a little more excited to see us.
Lily Allen was as cute and cheeky as I expected. The scene was: stage was fun with light up baby bottles, booty shakin' dancers on half of the songs, 3 outfit changes, and her fab potty mouth. She sang every song live, which was refreshing (can't believe I have to say that)... and even no backing tracks. She mentioned a few times she felt she was losing her low range voice, but it didn't sound bad to me! Good energy on stage and played to the crowd. The only thing was she didn't play very long… an hour and a half? We were out of the club before 10:30pm. Coulda done a few more songs, it felt pretty quick. All in all, worth my $30 ticket.
I went to her show at the roundhouse in London and it was amazing! other than the couple in front of us who were getting off the whole time, were rude about the support act, S-X, who was great, and took pictures for the first 20 mins she was on and then, thankfully, went, it was really fun. At the end she brought on Shy FX and stamina mc to do their recent song 'roll the dice', which was really good. Her voice was very good and she performed all of them really well.
I've been a Lily Allen fan and was waiting for a long time for her to play in the US. I was not disappointed with the show it was fun and full of energy. As a Lily Allen fan I can say she played all her bops it was amazing. The best part of the an the incredible night, was the closer of the show Fuck You (Very Much, everyone with their middle fingers up, singing and dancing. It was amazing and cathartic, loved every minute of it!!!!
Lily Allen is hard worker.
She writes, sing, produces and guide her music leading to a true art process.
She is able to criticize herself and be honest about her timeline career.
I had a great time in her live concert in New York City which was crowded. The artist make us rethink about many of our society issues with soft and outgoing melodies.
It's fun, authentic and honest.
