Armed with her new album, Looking Glass, which was written during a chaotic period in her life, she takes on the impressive stage.

After being immersed in the set for a few songs, two things are etched in stone: Alela Diane's crystal-clear angelic voice and the humor with which she consistently returns to the earthly realms of the common people, where we eagerly await more from her.

On March 6, 2024, indie-folk singer Alela Diane will be performing on the stage of the Nieuwe Kerk.The album explores a range of emotions, including the joys and strains of motherhood, especially for an artist.

Support: Omar Velasco
Afkomstig uit Los Angeles, de volleerd singer-songwriter en multi-instrumentalist Omar Velasco opent het optreden voor Alela Diane in de Nieuwe Kerk. Omar eert de geluiden uit het verleden terwijl hij zijn eigen eclectische en kenmerkende mix van multiculturele muzikale smaak creëert. Hij haalt inspiratie uit artiesten als Stevie Wonder, Leonard Cohen en Bob Dylan

That Alela Diane has an affinity for antiques is evident in the name of her latest album. Looking Glass is a reference to the book Through the Looking Glass from 1871 by Lewis Carroll. And there’s a deeper meaning behind this. After the book was released, the term Looking Glass acquired a dual meaning. In addition to a mirror, it now also means ‘the opposite of what is normal and expected.’ In the context of Diane’s album, Looking Glass refers to both meanings of the word, serving as a portal between the past and the future and as a reflection of everything in between.
