English Americana singer-songwriter Yola recently performed at The Atlantis in DC, where she spotlighted her second studio full-length album, Stand for Myself.
Steve Satzberg was there to photograph the show!
Across a 19-song setlist at The Atlantis on April 15, Yola performed nine songs from Stand for Myself. She also performed five cover songs, notably Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy” toward the end of her set and Anita Baker’s “Sweet Love” to kick off her encore.
Yola, born Yolanda Claire Quartey, also added some new songs to her setlist, suggesting that a new album may be on the way. She closed her show with a live debut of her song “Ready.”
