“'Look Up Child' has been in the works for quite some time, and I’m excited to finally share it with my fans,” says Daigle. “The studio has become my companion as I’ve poured all that I can into what is now a body of work that I deeply treasure.”
The first single from "Look Up Child,"—“You Say”—demonstrates a growth in Lauren’s talent as a songwriter and vocalist. The song is both emotional and uplifting, a reminder to look inward to find strength in difficult times. “You Say” is now available across all streaming services and the official video can be viewed here.
From catchy melodies, to reggae jive, sweeping orchestral ballads to back beat vibe, "Look Up Child" has transcribed the pulse of Lauren’s veins into musical form. She adds, “Every part of the music experience, of 'Look Up Child,' the album and the tour shares a profound love, deep-rooted joy, and hopefully a connection to the music for people to share.”
Daigle will embark on her first headlining theatre tour in support of "Look Up Child" on Sept. 27. Presented by Food for the Hungry, the tour will kick off in Cincinnati and make stops in Memphis, Chicago, Dallas, Cleveland, Charlotte and her hometown of New Orleans, before wrapping in Jackson, Mississippi, on Oct. 28.
