Lizzo
From Minneapolis
First show since since January 23, 2015 • First Mainroom show since September 27, 2014 • First show supporting a touring headliner since September 21, 2013 • 15th show on MN Live's calendar since January 24, 2013
From last.fm:
Born in Detroit in the late 80’s, Lizzo spent much of her formative years in the church, where she was raised on the gospel sounds of The Winans, The Clark Sisters, and Fred Hammond, along with mainstay secular artists such as Stevie Wonder and Elton John. At the age of 10 her family moved to Houston, TX, and Lizzo was exposed to a wide array of emerging Southern musical styles, from the trademark chopped and screwed rap tracks of the underground, to the progressive and polished R&B sounds of groups like Destiny’s Child that were raising the city’s national profile to new heights.
