Anderson .Paak in Concert
Presenting the artist in a top hat and plaid boxer shorts as he plays piano in the surf amid a smattering of objects like an old-school record player, the surreal cover image for Anderson .Paak's breakthrough album perfectly suited its wildly inventive contents. Full of witty, unpredictable songs and styles that ranged from ‘60s soul to ‘90s hip-hop to vanguard R&B, ‘Malibu' became one of 2016's most acclaimed albums, establishing its creator as a maverick whose imagination can seem virtually limitless. Along with a Grammy nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album, the album earned Anderson .Paak another Grammy nod for Best New Artist along with similar acknowledgements at the Soul Train Music Awards and the BET Hip Hop Awards.
All that marked a long journey from Anderson .Paak's first foray into music, which was playing drums in church growing up in Oxnard, California. After coming to Los Angeles, he sought to establish himself as a session musician while creating his own sounds under the moniker Breezy Lovejoy. His fortunes rose when he began working for Shafiq Husayn of Sa-Ra, the revered L.A. hip-hop duo and production team. His new confidence inspired him to drop his former handle in favor of Anderson .Paak, a stylized version of his real name. The buzz got louder with the release of his wildly diverse debut, ‘Venice' (2014), and his contributions to albums by Dr. Dre and The Game. And while he fully proved his capabilities with ‘Malibu,' it was ‘Yes Lawd!' (2016) by NxWorries – his duo with producer Knxwledge – as well as shows with his band The Free Nationals that confirmed he's just as compelling with close collaborators on hand as when he's pursuing his singular vision.
His third album and first since signing to Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment, ‘Oxnard' sees Anderson .Paak introduce yet more colors in his palette, beginning with Technicolor textures, carnivalesque soundscape, and his own exuberant flow in "Bubblin'," the album's first single. And with his return to stages with The Free Nationals, Anderson .Paak is ready to make good on his reputation as one of the exciting new talents in hip-hop and R&B.
A true performer. We left the venue in shock. Better than we could have possibly imagined. .Paak is a musician of the highest caliber. Absolutely worth every penny. Do yourself a favor and go to the next show in your area.
I could’ve danced all night long Anderson.Paak and The Free Nationals were beyond my expectations of music 🎶 I can definitely say I had a magical time. Thank you for being true artist love, loved every moment.
Beautiful venue with lots of space, comfortable seats, great views, & amazing sound. Anderson was a total pro on stage & delivered a fun performance with a ton of musicality. All 3 acts started on time & delivered great performances. I look forward to attending a show here in the future.
Anderson .Paak and the free nationals put on one hell of a show!! Everyone onstage was so incredibly talented and full of good energy and spunk. I loved the jazzy interludes and solos that were incorporated. My absolute favorite parts were when Andy would go on the drums halfway through a song because it was like an explosion of color to their sound. The venue itself was pretty good as far as sound and space. Also shout out to Mac DeMarco for an amazing opening act. We came late and did not get to see Thundercat but much love to him as well.
Anderson paak, the free nationals, band, lights, show, music... just the best.
Fantastic performance, hopefully he comes back soon!
The venue was fantastic, Anderson and the FN came out and knocked it out of the park. There was fire, fireworks and confetti. It was overall a great music experience and a great way to kick off the summer.
I love Anderson.Paak!!! The show was a full night of singing an dancing from start to finish! Come back to Dallas!!!
Best concert I’ve attended, true musician great show, wife is now a fan! Would definitely attend an additional Anderson Paak show
Show was out of this world!!! Full energy from start to finish!!! Instrumentation was second to none!!! Best show I’ve ever seen!!!
The concert was AWESOME!!! Anderson Paak put on an show to remember so no complaints on the artist. The venue is another story. Pros are that it was a line to get into the venue, the workers were very nice anf the bathroom was really clean to my surprise. The Cons were that the seats were too close. Im sorry but i had to move to another seat because i knew i was going to be dancing and i didnt have room to do so. ALSO!!! A tall beer cost 16.99??? I know when i go to the American Airlines Center or any other venue a tall beer is not that price ESPECIALLY for an apple ale beer at that. I think thats is a little overboard. Other than that, a great experience.
Show was lit, Anderson Paak is a true artist!!!! Fun, and I had a great time!!!
A 10/10 concert... energy performance and everything else. Loved it.
Everything about this show was amazing. The sound was wonderful, artists were awesome, venue was perfect. Can’t wait to hear him again.
Loved everything about the show!! The energy was so high. Loved the visuals. Must see show!
Great restaurant and bars surrounding area. Well groomed. Very fitting for a concert Venue. Love the valet parking. It took us 3 min to get back on the high way. Concert was great and seats were good. Sound of the music could have been better but maybe I’ll sit closer next time. Drinks were to expensive and not for cheap liquor venue was clean and well kept
I had a good time! It was outstanding. Superb! Amazing!
Anderson.Paak kicked major a$$ singing, rapping, dancing and drumming! High energy great stage show
One of the best concerts I’ve been too! Anderson Paak is a great performer
I loved every moment. Each song was a visual experience. Everyone around me had a sense of community and were jamming to the music. Will definitely have to go again!!
