Madi Diaz – World Café Live – Philadelphia, PA – February 28, 2024
Madi Diaz’s recent show in Philadelphia proved to be a moving experience, captivating the audience with her mesmerizing vocals and dynamic stage presence. Diaz got her break as a solo artist after releasing History of a Feeling in 2021. Writing songs for Kesha, Little Big Town, and touring with Harry Styles also contributed to her resume.
Philadelphia was one of the first shows on the Weird Faith Tour, named after Diaz’s most recent album, which came out this year. The setlist for the show started with “Same Risk,” the first track on the album. Madi writes songs about love in ways that feel new and clever. She gives us insight into her life through her music and isn’t afraid to show her vulnerability.
One of the most impressive aspects of Diaz’s performance was her ability to connect with the audience on a deeply emotional level. There was an authenticity to her delivery that resonated with the room. Her lyrics, filled with introspection and raw emotion, served as a reminder of the power of music to evoke human experiences.
Before most of the songs she performed that night, Madi gave her listeners a glimpse into what the song was inspired by. Her short introductions only added to the experience of hearing her perform along with showing her relatability. Backed up by her drummer, Diaz performed her 19 song setlist using three different guitars. The encore ended perfectly with the song “Weird Faith,” which summarized the theme of the night.
Overall, Madi Diaz’s concert was a testament to her talent as a musician and performer. With her soul-stirring vocals and songwriting prowess, she left a lasting impression on all those who attended.
