Lyfe Jennings in Concert
Lyfe Jennings Live
Over a series of powerfully compelling releases since 2004, Lyfe Jennings has established himself as one of the R&B world's most unique artists, one who's able to reflect on his experiences in life and love with rare honesty and authenticity.
Audiences have seen these qualities in Jennings ever since the then-unknown, Toledo-born singer grabbed their attention by winning five straight nights of an amateur competition at New York's legendary Apollo Theater in 2002. His first major chart success came in 2006 with "S.E.X.," a thoughtful duet with LaLa Brown that made an earnest and timely statement about choosing love above other temptations.
Released in 2019, Jennings' seventh studio album 777 is another showcase of his exceptional talent and versatility as a vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter. Whether performing solo or teaming with guests like Algebra Blessett on the tender "Tell Me" and Tank on the sultry "Like This," Jennings bares his heart with a directness and vulnerability reminiscent of the artists who most inspired him, a list that includes Erykah Badu and D'Angelo as well as icons such as Al Green and Curtis Mayfield. His live performances prove he belongs in that same artistic lineage.
Lyfe Jennings Background
Raised in Toledo, Ohio, Lyfe Jennings had an early start in music, performing in his church choir and in a family group called the Dotsons. After experiencing hard times in his youth, he decided to change his life's direction by pouring his energy into performing and writing. A five-night string of victories in the Apollo Theater's amateur competition in 2002 brought him to the attention of the music industry.
Released in 2004, Jennings' debut album Lyfe 268-192 was praised for his poignant and authentic brand of contemporary R&B and gritty old-school soul. It earned him his first Top 10 entry in Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop albums chart. Combining his debut's thoughtful social commentary and softhearted balladry with tougher hip-hop tracks featuring Three 6 Mafia and Young Buck, Jennings went all the way to the top of the Billboard 200 with 2006's The Phoenix.
Jennings has impressed critics and wowed audiences with the depth and versatility he displays on such albums as 2010's I Still Believe and 2019's 777. In 2018, Jennings toured the US as a special guest of Brian McKnight before continuing to perform nationally as a headliner.
The atmosphere was perfect. Venue was perfect professional staff and very organized
Phenomenal performance, I’d go see him again! The band was amazing too. 20 years later tour!
Lyfe performed! Great show, wish it was longer. The opening act was fun. The Birchmere never disappoints.
The show was Awesome!! Lyfe was very down to earth and engaging with the audience. He sang all of his hits. He had a live band and back up singers. I loved the performance from beginning to end. I was screaming and singing the whole show. And he took the time to take multiple pictures with us fans at the end. I’m definitely going to check him out again.
Loved the concert and atmosphere. Food could be improved. Seating was very tight. I'll just get there super early the next concert that I attend.
Lyfe Jennings concert was amazing. The room was full but comfortable. Drinks were strong & good. We enjoyed our night & will be back.
Had a great time…nice venue…i would definately go again. The food was wonderful and good drinks
Lyfe Jennings brought the house down. I'm glad I caught the show.
It was a nice chance of pace from the large arena and allowed audience interaction
I think what was most disappointing that Goapele was changed two days before the concert without any explanation. And the substitute acts brought a different vibe. Raheem Devaughn was amazing, and I would rate his performance 5 stars. He really should have been the headliner. Lyfe was all over the place and talked too much. I will not support another concert from this promoter or see Lyfe again.
