To kick off the school year every August, the Lied Center’s Big Red Lied Experience is hosting a free concert featuring rising star Maude Latour.
Latour will perform at 8 p.m. Aug. 25 outside of the Lied Center on the University of Nebraska–Lincoln campus. The concert is free and open to the public.
There will be food trucks including Made it Myself Shaved Ice, 402 Creamery and Papi Churros. This event is part of the Lied Center’s Arts for All program, which provides free and half-price tickets to most Lied Center events. Learn more here.
Latour signed her first record deal, graduated from Columbia University, amassed a passionate fanbase and appeared on the cover of the Chicago Tribune and in the pages of The New York Times this year. The whole time, she’s been honing her craft, pushing herself to tackle uncomfortable truths and blow open the idea of what a pop song can be. Latour began writing songs at 15. Then, years later, at the beginning of the pandemic, “One More Weekend” went viral, and she signed with Warner Records. Her latest string of EPs — “001” and most recently, “Twin Flame” — capture Latour at a turning point, winning over fans and critics alike from the likes of NPR, Rolling Stone, Billboard and V Magazine.
