The entire show was amazing! Goapole is one of those artists that sounds better live. She is so talented and I go see her every chance I get. I love Heiro and she brought them out to perform 2 of my favorite songs. Martin Luther also joined her to do a great song that we all love. I love that she did a Prince tribute and sang a few of his songs. Samaria opened for her and she was also very well received, we really enjoyed the show. We love that she performs at smaller intimate venues, they are always the best!!

This was my first time seeing Goapele live and she was amazing. She gave one of the best live performances I have ever seen at the Birchmere. I cant believe it has been 10 years since they had her back. She was the consummate professional and provided a great range of her songs and a couple of samples of other artist. Her rendition of "Hot Line Bling" was classy.

This was a surprise birthday present for my husband...we have all of Goapele's albums, and this event was well worth the price of the tickets.

The event was awesome. I arrived early and was able to get a great seat. It was like having her perform in my living room! She had such good energy. Her vocal talent appears to come to her effortlessly. She did a ton of song from the new album, break of dawn. We were the 3rd awesome to hear these songs live!

Goapele and Wunmi gave NYC their all at BB Kings in NYC on Monday - what an awesome way to start the week!! Wunmi set it off with great energy and powerful lyrics, and Goapele was sultry and smooth. Both are inspiring artists.

Goapele's album release party was wonderful! Her voice is even more amazing in concert. She sang a mix of her previous hits, as well as songs from her new album - Break of Dawn. She got the crowd singing along and moving along! The venue has floor space that allows you to come close to the stage, and bask in the vocal greatness of any of the artists that perform there. B.B. King's is great because you have the option to sit down and have a meal and/or drinks, or get up close to the stage and rock out!

I had a great time at the Goapele album release concert. I have followed her since she released her first album in 2001 and it was great to finally see her in concert. Goapele did not dissapoint as she performed songs from her new cd, as well as, songs from previous cds. It was well worth the 1 1/2 drive to NY since she is hardly ever on the east coast. I truly enjoyed myself and would take the drive to see her perform again!

I saw Goapele on Monday , October 24 at BB King NYC. I have been waiting to see her for 3 years and could not believe she was coming to NY. I came in from CT and was so glad that I did. Her voice is as perfect live as it is recorded. I could not wait in line to buy Break of Dawn but I did buy it the next day. Love her!

Enjoyed the show, both performances were great. Only thing I would change is the silence between artists. Would be nice to have music playing while having dinner before the show. Food was good. I had catfish and red beans and rice.

Goapele is an awesome perform because she sounds exactly like her music. I was like listening to the CD live. Not too mention I felt like the price made the show an unbelievable value. I would recommend anyone seeing Goapele live in concert because her voice delivers.

Goapele delivered an awesome performance. I had never seen her perform live so I was excited to see her. She was amazing. Loved her voice and new short hair cut! It was a packed house and she got the crowd going. She performed for about an hour and 15.

This event was dope because of the venue. You could stand up front by the stage or hang out in back by the bartender :) What topped it off is that we got to meet Goapele after the show. So cool to be able to thank her for sharing the gift of her beautiful voice with us fans. She is down to earth. Would definitely see her again and recommend checking her out to anyone into her music but hasn't been to a concert.

This was the first time I saw Goapele perform. She was amazing and has a voice of an angel. I knew she could sing really really good but baby seeing her up close and personal took it to another level....The girl can SANG....she blew the roof off the sucka. I will go back to see her again and again. Ohhhh and the gentleman that opened for her V. Rich was also too. I got 2 of his cds and look forward to getting his new cd too.

Goalepe's performance was wonderful. She sang several songs from all of her albums, as well as singing some songs from other artists. Her band and backup singers are extremely talented. Goalepele sang a song paying tribute to the struggles of the people in South Africa, not forgetting her roots. She expressed her gratitude for this sell-out event and the love she received the crowd.

Goapele sounded excellent in person and she was looking FINE in that leopard print dress! Opening act Yunna was a pleasant surprise. Didnt know what to expect when she walked on stage timidly and spoke softly introducing herself but when she started singing it was very well received by the audience. Had a great time, the El Rey is a very nice venue to catch a show.

I attended the last Goapele at Jazz Alley this pat weekend. I had a WONDERFUL time. It was my first time attending a show at Jazz Alley; I really dug the scene there. The show started promptly and Goapele and her band had tons of energy. They put on a great show and it was clear that they were enjoying themselves. I stuck around for a few minutes after most people had cleared out and was lucky enough to have a few minutes of her time and get my CD autographed! YAAAYYY!

Situation started on down note from the beginning and never improved. (1) We had VIP tickets but after entering venue, no one directed us to where VIP seats were; we had to ask. (2) Food & Drink service were extremely poor. Example: some people at our table never got glasses of water. Had the flag down different waiter to get service. (3) Show started more than hour late. No explanation was provided while waiting, nor after the artist came on. (4) Band support was subpar. Very obvious that singer has a beautiful voice (it's what attracted my date to her) but she was accompanied by a guitar and synthesizer and the synthesizer muted/overshadowed her voice sometimes making it impossible to hear/appreciate very crisp vocals

Goapele did her thing AFTER stepping on stage in over an hour late. No one came on stage to give any update or anything. That's not good and drastically hurt her rating for me.

Coming to San Francisco from Detroit for the weekend was an unforgettable experience. Goapele's smooth voice echoed throughout the room, and made every person in there feel as if she were connected with them. The venue was almost a perfect setting. Had there been more seats, it would have been perfect. Goapele did justice to every song she performed. Her performance was about an hour long, and she brought great energy to the stage. This concert was worth every penny!

I love Goapele! Being a home grown local artist out of I Oakland says it all!!! The concert was very intimate at the Mezzanine and I enjoyed myself. I really would have loved it even more if she sang some of her original pieces from the "Even Closer" album!!!! As an artist, I understand growth but you gotta keep it original especially when a lot of those songs put Goapele on the map! I was looking forward to hearing her old songs more than her new songs. Overall, a great concert!

I wish I could have seen her perform. It was definitely a planned I was looking forward to. Doors opened at 6, sat down around 6:30. Had a great dinner and a drink. Show was supposed to begin at 8. 8:20 nothing, first opening act got to the stage closer to 8:30 and wasn't done until 9:10/:15. Next opening act wasn't gonna be onstage for another 20 minutes I was sure. Walked out at 9:40 as the second act was coming on. I figured he would be done until 10:30 or more meaning Goapele wouldn't start up until close to 11. Past my bedtime.

First time at Howard Theater and I actually enjoyed the venue. Sound quality was excellent. Artists was amazing!!!!! Opening act was engaging and well received. Goapele was phenomenal, As a new follower of hers, I truly enjoyed her performance. Eric Roberson was great as well. Wished there was more time for him BUT his show is soon coming.

Goapele is an underrated yet amazing singer. Her voice is powerfully soulful and her stage presence is so sexy cool!! I've liked Goapele for years but going to this show and seeing her perform live, I now love Goapele. My girlfriend wasn't too familiar with Goapele but now she's a Goapele fan for sure. She was blown back by how good of a singer she is and dumbfounded as to why she didn't really know about Goapele before now. "Her band was awesome and having Eric Roberson join her for a few songs just added icing to an already amazing cake.

I had heard a few Goapele songs, but this was my first time seeing her in person. From the first song, I was hooked. This woman has a clear and flawless voice. She is an absolute beauty too. She has the smooth, classy, feminine sexiness like Sade on stage. I'm going to make a point to catch her show every time she comes to Atlanta. I'm a new fan.
