Platinum-certified and critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Em Beihold brought her Maybe Life Is Good Tour home to Los Angeles last week. Originally scheduled as a two-night stand at the Roxy Theatre, the debut headlining hometown shows were merged into one and moved to the historic El Rey Theatre due to ongoing renovations at the former venue. The result was a completely packed house full of enthusiastic youngsters dancing and singing along with the extremely quirky & lovable artist as she performed mega-hit “Numb Little Bug”, brand new single “Maybe Life Is Good”, a cover of Stephen Sanchez’s viral single “Until I Found You” (which she is featured on), and many others. Em has since finished up her cross-continent tour and is back home in L.A. reveling and recovering… while her devoted fans are already looking forward to her next release and tour.
Setlist: Roller Coasters Make Me Sad, 12345, Too Precious, Groundhog Day, Extraordinary, City Of Angels, Until I Found You, Shiny New Things, Goo, Pedestal, Spiderman, Lottery, Egg In The Backseat, Maybe Life Is Good, Numb Little Bug.
