Daimy Lotus – PRESHOW RITUALS

In this Preshow Rituals segment, the pop artist, Daimy Lotus, reveals what she does before taking the stage. You can check out the rituals, after the break.

Before a show, I always get overwhelmed with excitement because I get to do what I love most, being on stage and performing my art surrounded by amazing people!

Usually, excitement takes the upper hand but I’m always feeling a bit anxious too. I’m a little bit of a control freak, meaning I want to give the best show that I possibly can so I tend to double-check things like the set list, light plan, make-up, clothes, etc. multiple times haha. I consider it a good thing but it can be stressful at times. That’s why I always need to take a moment with myself before doing a show. My band members know I need this so when the time’s there I give them a hug, wish them a good show and seclude myself from the ‘noise’. I take at least 10 minutes, depending on where we’re playing and how much time we have, to focus on my breathing and do my last vocal exercises. I pep talk myself and make sure my head is ‘calm’ before I go on stage. I always find the process very interesting because as soon as I set foot on stage all my anxiety and worries are gone, I just feel super comfortable and have the best time ever!
