Colombian singer, songwriter, and actor Sebastian Yatra brought his Dharma Tour to the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles. It was an unforgettable show with high-energy and emotional moments.
Yatra kicked off the show with “Melancolicós Anonimos,” from that moment the crowd did not sit down and sang along to all of his songs. The tour may be named the “Dharma Tour,” but Yatra performed tracks from his previous albums including “Por Perro,” “Cómo Mirarte,” “Robarte Un Beso,” and “Traicionera” from Mantra. There was also “Cristina” and “Un Año” from Fantasía, as well as global and viral sensation “Tacones Rojos” off of Dharma, in total it was a 24-song setlist. Yatra also did a cover of Selena Quintanilla’s “Baila Esta Cumbia,” a king paying homage to a queen. Yatra also invited Venezuelan singer/composer, Lasso on stage to perform their remix of “Ojos Marrones,” you can watch the performance below!
A high-energy night, but it also included some emotional moments for Yatra, his first show in L.A., before performing “Un Año,” Yatra spoke to the crowd:
Nos hacen creer que cualquier cosa, menos esa meta final de no ser el puesto número uno en la carrera es una mierda, literalmente nos sentimos así. Nos enseñaron que el número dos, el tres, no cuentan y que el número 100 no existe. Esos son solamente números, los números no tienen emociones, los números no tienen sentimientos, los números no se quedan en el corazón de nadie.
Se queda un beso, un abrazo, un primer amor, se queda lo que nuestros abuelos dieron por nosotros para estar donde estamos. En mi corazón se queda que hoy está mi primo Esteban aquí viéndome, que lo admiro muchísimo y que es un gran músico. En mi corazón está Colombia.
Were we in tears after Yatra performed “Un Año”? Absolutely, you could feel the emotions when he performed the song. That is what a true artist does, they bare their soul on stage and that is what Yatra did. This may have been his first show in L.A., but it definitely won’t be his last, Yatra is a superstar.
