“If you’ve been to a Lola Young concert, before you know how this goes,” Lola Young told the crowd on Monday night. “It’s a shambles, the talking bit’s a shambles, the whole shebang’s a shambles, and it just goes on and on for a bit too long.”
She’s selling herself short. If there was ever an excuse to go out and party on a Monday, Young would be it. Her biggest song, Messy, has gone viral. She’s been nominated for a Brit Award – and performed at the show. She’s spent four weeks at number one. Her star is not so much on the rise as careening through the outer atmosphere.
