The Born To Die Orchestra: A Tribute to Lana Del Rey at Crystal Ballroom – Somerville, MA

Niki Luparelli Presents

The Born to Die Orchestra

A Tribute to Lana Del Rey

Step into a world of melancholic old Hollywood glamour and get lost in the music that defined a generation. From the haunting echoes of “Summertime Sadness” to the soulful depths of “Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd,” and all the cinematic anthems in between—this is the ultimate Lana Del Rey experience you’ve been waiting for!

Leading the night is the mesmerizing Niki Luparelli, whose voice captures the very soul of Lana herself. With the power of the 11-piece Born to Die Orchestra behind her, Luparelli will transport you through the shadowy, moonlit landscapes of Lana’s discography, bringing each song to life in a way you’ve never heard before. Put your little red party dress on, do your hair up real big beauty queen style, bring your pretty face and electric soul, and ride down to the Crystal Ballroom in Somerville where you can take your high heels off and feel alive

This isn’t just a concert; it’s an experience—a one-night-only journey into the otherworldly beauty of Lana’s music performed LIVE. Lose yourself in the nostalgia, the romance, and the poetry of her lyrics. Don’t miss out… because nothing gold can stay. It’s a quick, sick rampage for one special night, one special show

?????????? ”I cried lol it was beautiful”

?????????? “Niki Luparelli delivers the most stunning performance of Lana next to Lana herself. Ethereal vocals, full orchestration, and pitch perfect ambiance absolutely transports you to a sexier plane of existence.”

?????????? “Lana Del Rey writes some amazing songs and [Niki] drew every nuanced emotion out of the notes.”

?????????? “Definitely not disappointed.”

??????????????? “Niki Luparelli is transcendent in her performance of Lana Del Ray. I watched the entire show with my mouth agape. Her voice (as well as her backup singers) moved me to an alternate reality. The 10-piece band was such an incredible touch and the icing on the cake. Absolutely one of my favorite shows this year.”

??????????????? “Niki Luparelli has a soulful voice that works well with the emotional depth of Lana Del Rey’s music. Her lush orchestral arrangements lift her voice until it soars far and away and makes you feel like you’ve taken a trip to somewhere wonderful.”

**********
Niki Luparelli, a local chanteuse who has grown into a beautiful brass-balled butterfly Goddess commanding every stage she sets foot on with the electric quality that only time and talent allow. She has the sparkle of old Hollywood glamour and the gin-soaked liver to back it up. She is what would happen if David Bowie and Mae West had a baby.With the acquired presence of an immortal: Ageless and fearless, she will lull you with her classically trained, artfully abused velvet voice and then sucker punch you with her bawdy banter and mastery of the absurd. A long-time comedian who has appeared in the Santa Monica Westside Comedy Festival, the Women in Comedy Festival, hosted the Boston Comedy Festival semifinals for years, and won NYC’s ladies of laughter, Niki isn’t just a set of enormous… pipes. She’s known for her David Boobie, Stevie Nicks, Strip Zeppelin, Lana Del Rey at the Boston Museum of Science Planetarium, and Haunted Speakeasy® events
