CONCERT: EYEDRESS: AN UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT AT THE NOVO

BY: Jesse Zapatero

Filipino artist Idris Vicuña, better known as Eyedress recently lit up The Novo in downtown LA with a sold-out show that left us buzzing.

The show kicked off with Na-kel Smith, whose hardcore grunge rap performance was a perfect way to get everyone in the audience warmed up. The raw energy and intensity of his set were an ideal introduction to the night. Then came Provoker, the second opener, who took things to the next level. Provoker's electrifying performance included an unexpected twist – he jumped into the crowd, creating an immediate connection with the audience and setting the tone for the night..

When Eyedress finally took the stage, the venue was packed shoulder to shoulder. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation, and as his band emerged under the cool, moody blue lights, the crowd erupted. Eyedress opened his set with a slow, melodic song, setting a mellow vibe that allowed everyone to ease into the night. However, it didn't take long for the crowd to become more than just excited – they were practically ecstatic. Where I was standing, people were dancing, shouting, and thoroughly enjoying themselves. The energy was so infectious that it seemed to spread through the entire venue.

As the show continued, it transformed into a full-fledged rock 'n roll experience. The air was thick with the sweet scent of weed, and Eyedress, the showman that he is, didn't hesitate to dive into the crowd, joining the fans in their excitement. It was a remarkable moment of connection between the artist and his audience, and it showcased the genuine love and appreciation that flowed both ways.

One of the standout moments of the night was when Eyedress performed an unreleased song called "Occasional Stoner,” giving us the exclusive and feeling connected to something special.

In all honesty, it was just one of those nights where you really had to be there to see such greatness happen. Eyedress showed us why he's a star. Selling out The Novo is no small feat, and he accomplished it with style and substance. The night was a testament to his talent, charisma, and ability to captivate a diverse audience. Personally, I can't wait to experience another one of Eyedress's shows in the near future. His performance at The Novo was nothing short of amazing and left us all craving more. He is undoubtedly an artist to keep an eye on.
