About
Yola On Tour
Yola is an award-winning British singer/songwriter whose expansive music spans multiple genres. Born by the name of Yolanda Claire Quartey on July 31, 1983, the self-taught musician started her career as young as 13 when she learned how to play the guitar and began writing her own songs one year later. Her debut EP, 2019's Walk Through Fire, reached No. 1 on UK's Americana Top 40 sales chart, generated three Grammy Award nominations, and earned consideration for Album of the Year at the Americana Music Honors & Awards. The title track, "Walk Through Fire," won the Best American Roots Song award with critical acclaim for its fierce lyrics and raw emotion. Fans came from far and wide to watch Yola on tour performing her breakthrough album, making appearances at the Newport Folk Festival, and opening for artists including Greta Van Fleet and Old Crow Medicine Show. Her sophomore album, Stand For Myself, dropped in July 2021 and peaked at No. 6 on Billboard's Americana/Folk Albums chart. It features Yola's new, exciting vocal choices while maintaining the same powerful pipes that she's become known for.
Yola in Concert
Yola grew up surrounded by music in Bristol, England. Her mother was a folk singer who performed at local festivals and invited young Yola onstage to join in. Before launching her career as a solo artist, she sang in a local Bristol band and has a long history of working as a backup vocalist for major musical acts, including a 2015 collaboration with Massive Attack on the track "Ritual Spirit." Yola released her debut solo EP Orphan Offering as an independent artist in November of 2016, followed by the three singles -- "Walk Through Fire," "Shady Grove," and "Love All Night (Work All Day)" -- that she'd later release on her second EP Walk Through Fire. The 12-track studio album was released in February 2019 on the Easy Eye Sound label and distributed by Nonesuch Records to much critical acclaim. Stand For Myself was also well-received and hit No. 2 on Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart. You can experience her stunning emotional breadth and see Yola on tour across the country.

by Michelle on 4/19/24The Atlantis - WashingtonYola is so talented and it was such an intimate experience. She was so entertaining in her stories and performances. She got to share a few new songs which were beautiful and fun. So excited to see what she does next and to watch her perform again!
Rating: 5 out of 5 What a talented performer!
by Mustang289 on 4/18/24The Atlantis - WashingtonI’ve waited a while to see Yola, hoping for a reserved seat venue. Not that you’re going to sit much during one of her performances, but I like to have my own space, and I’ll pay extra for that. I finally broke down and went to The Atlantis (standing GA) to see her. I’m glad I did and can’t wait to see her again. The venue’s only drawback is no seats. There are no bad viewing locations, cozy atmosphere, good climate control (80 plus degree day, not hot in there), good acoustics.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Amazing artist. She so going all the way!

by Mel B on 9/13/22Hoyt Sherman Place - Des MoinesPrior to this concert, my husband and I had not heard of Yola before. But we were looking for something to do in DM, and from what we saw of her videos online, we decided to check her out. In the quaint context of Hoyt Sherman, Yola filled every inch of that auditorium with her soulful and dynamic voice. We had a great time and enjoyed her concert very much! And, WE WILL be listening to her music more in the future!

by t. w. on 9/11/22Jac Ross did not show up to Des Moines, which is why I purchased tickets. Boo. Never heard of Yola, but gave one of the best live performances I’ve ever heard. Her and the band were amazing! Definitely a must see, and I feel like she touched on every genre
Rating: 4 out of 5 Yola was great Jac Ross Mia
by t. w. on 9/11/22I booked these tickets to see Jac Ross in Des Moines, IA, which he did not even show up. Total let down, lost a fan! I had never heard of Yola, but she more than made up for it! She’s amazing! One of the best live shows I’ve been to hands down! Great voice and band! Gained a fan for sure!!!
