The Regrettes Shut Down Los Angeles One More Time
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - DECEMBER, 20TH
The Regrettes bid farewell in a whirlwind of emotions at Los Angeles’ iconic Fonda Theater. The crowd was a canvas of hearts and primary colors that echoed the thematic core of their sophomore album “How Do You Love.” A bittersweet aura enveloped the venue as the band prepared for their final performance.
The stage became a visual storyboard adorned with hues of reds, yellows, and blues encapsulating the the album’s essence. Hearts intertwined with the lyrics projected a narrative of love and heartache. The intimate connection between the band and their devoted audience painted a poignant picture of shared experiences. As the night progressed, the intensity swelled, each song was a release of pent-up sentiments. Lydia Night’s voice was like a compass guiding the fans through the tales of songs that felt like pages ripped from a shared diary, evoking laughter, tears, and an overwhelming sense of unity.
When the final notes from songs like “California Friends,” “Pumpkin,” and “Poor Boy” reverberated through the theater, the audience became a chorus of voices blending with the band’s echoing the joys and pain they’ve all shared.
The night was encapsulated with love between the crowd and the band. Between Lydia sharing moments off stage to sing in the pit with fans surrounding her, and the crowd surfing that took place between fans and even Drew Thomsen, the drummer of the band, the show felt like one last party with old friends.
Thank you Regrettes, for the music, the memories, and the indelible mark you’ve left on our souls. Though this may be goodbye for now, your music will forever resonate within us. Your farewell wasn’t just a concert, it was a heartfelt goodbye to a chapter of our lives that you’ve colored so vibrantly with your music.
