Review: Lauren Daigle, Look Up Child World Tour at the o2 Islington, London

Grammy award winner Lauren Daigle performed to a sold out o2 Academy in Islington, London as part of her Look Up Child World Tour. It is her only UK stop on the tour and her first headlining performance in the UK, the venue was jam-packed full of fans.

Support came from UK based LIPA( Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts) graduate Ian Janco who took to the stage with his guitar, his set warming the crowd up ready Lauren to take the stage. He’s one we definitely want to see more of.

Lauren took to the stage opening with Still Rolling Stones, then straight into the title track of her latest album and the tour, Look Up Child. she had the crowd behind her from the first song. Enthralling them for the entire set, which included surprise covers of Stevie Wonder’s Sir Duke and Don’t Dream It’s Over by Crowded House. Mass sing along occurred throughout her entire set, but perhaps the biggest came when she sang her hit single You Say.
