Tori Amos
Paramount Theatre, Seattle, WA
06.05.2022

It has been a challenging time for many during the “Great Pause” of the pandemic.  Especially when it comes to seeing live music for a city like Seattle. A packed Paramount theater has waited long enough for Tori Amos and her “Ocean to Ocean” tour to come to Seattle.

Openers Companion (comprised of twin sisters Sophia and Jo) open the evening with a selection of songs from their debut album “Second Day of Spring”.  Their voices blend and harmonize beautifully with some great songs, and stories gratitude being out on their first ever tour.

The lights dim and the crowd roars to their feet when Tori walks across the stage.  Dressed in a shimmering green iridescent outfit that is a complement to her trademark red locks, she sits between a grand piano and her keyboard set up.

Tori is as engaging as ever with the adoring crowd.  Her voice is haunting as she debuts songs from her current album “Ocean to Ocean”.

The nearly 2.5 hour concert is filled with a of laughs and interaction while taking us on a journey through her expansive catalogue of music.
