民謠界女神Suzanne Vega首度來港
來自美國的Suzanne Vega,在八十年代民謠音樂不被看好的環境下,憑著不懈的堅持和獨特的氣質打破成局,並被譽為民謠復興的新希望。出道第二年以專輯《Solitude Standing》中的兩首名曲”Luka” 和”Tom's Diner” 競逐年度最佳專輯和最佳流行女歌手等三項格林美獎,並打進世界各地的排行榜,從此俘虜著樂迷們敏感的心靈。
至今出道二十多年,Suzanne Vega精緻輕柔的歌聲及高度文學化的歌詞依然備受樂迷推祟,直到今日世界各地仍有很多年輕歌手翻唱著她的歌。這位不老的「文藝青年」,一直貫徹低調風格,但只要看過Suzanne Vega現場演出的人都會被她強烈的壓場感和細膩內斂的音樂風格迷住。2012年在台灣的演出更被樂迷形容為該年「最感動人心的演唱會」。
Love Da Records將這位民謠界女神帶到香港作首次正式演出,並獲曾與David Bowie及Avril Lavigne合作的愛爾蘭藉著名結他手及監製Gerry Leonard全力支持,同台演出!
Suzanne Vega live in Hong Kong – Featuring Gerry Leonard
For the very first time in Hong Kong, folk-inspired sensation Suzanne Vega will be showcasing her steady musical talent in a massively successful career spanning almost three decades!
Against the misty tide of 80’s mainstream, the American singer/song writer emitted a new hope of light with her poetic and folk-inspired music. A couple of her finest works include classics such as Luka and Tom’s Diner. Her coveted second album Solitude Standing won her multiple Grammy nominations including Best Album and Best Female Artist simultaneously catapulting her to charts world-wide.
Celebrating the 28th anniversary since her debut album release, Vega (in her fifties), still effortlessly captivates an audience with her steadily refreshing tones, calm and delicate voice and her introspective lyrics. Generation after generation, musician’s world-wide continually cover her musical creations to this day. Those lucky enough to experience her live will still melt under her heart-warming tunes and embracing delivery as if set in the back drop of the roaring 1980’s.
On stage with Suzanne, we also have Gerry Leonard; renowned Irish guitarist/producer who has worked with the likes of David Bowie, Roger Waters, Avril Lavigne plus many more reputable musicians.
