LP (born Laura Pergolizz) will perform at the Ra’anana Amphitheatre on Wednesday July 27th. The artist, best known for the platinum album, “Lost on You,” has had to postpone their concert twice before — once due to covid and the other due to technical issues. Hopefully, the third time’s the charm (or as the translation in this LP video about the Israel gig says, “Third time, ice cream.”
Since the last scheduled (but postponed) concert in Israel, LP has released a sixth studio album, entitled “Churches.”
LP performed once before in Israel, in 2017 at the Barby Club in Tel Aviv. Since then, their career has blossomed and they have become known around the world.
In addition their own hits such as “Lost on You” and “Other People,” LP has written songs for Cher, Rihanna, the Backstreet Boys, Leona Lewis, Mylène Farmer, Céline Dion, Christina Aguilera and many others.
Tickets from kupat.co.il starting at NIS 299 (with discounts for certain credit card holders). All tickets bought for the postponed shows will be honored.

Band vocalist Mikko Kotamäki said band members were struck by the vibrancy of the Israeli heavy metal scene when they first performed in the country 12 years ago.
“We had never been in that part of the world before. It was amazing,” said Kotamäki. “We didn’t know that the metal scene was so good. I remember the first show – we were really blown away by what a great experience that was.”
The band are touring to promote their latest album, “Moonflowers.”
