Review: Lola Young shows personality in her honest sound on Palco Mundo

oglobo14 September 2026 at 00:05

The 25-year-old British Lola Young took to Rock in Rio's Palco Mundo with a show that mixed rock'n'roll and emotional honesty. She started her performance with the song "Wish you were dead," which reflects her confessional style, frequently inspired by past relationships. When speaking to the audience, Lola thanked Brazilian fans and joked about the rain that was falling during her performance.

The audience present was smaller than for Ivete Sangalo's performance, but remained engaged, filling the front of the stage even in the rain with plastic ponchos. Some technical sound issues were identified during the show, which did not stop the artist from continuing her performance.

Lola Young also publicly joked about her presence in British tabloids, where she is frequently associated with alcohol and drug problems. This media exposure has already earned her the comparison to Amy Winehouse, being called "the new Amy Winehouse." The artist demonstrated not caring about the controversies and maintained a charismatic and accessible posture with the Brazilian audience.

Why this matters

For Brazilian readers, especially music fans, this matters because Lola Young is an internationally rising artist who is winning over the country's audience with her live performances, and her show at Rock in Rio marks an important visibility moment for her in the Brazilian market. The performance also reignites the discussion about the comparison to Amy Winehouse and the personal challenges the young artist has faced.
