‘Driftwood from the sea is a gift from heaven.’ Hailai Amu, a singer-songwriter from Sichuan, is like a lurking poet. His hoarse and textured voice line deeply and simply expresses the complex emotions of human beings. Let’s find resonance in music.
Better Meet in Person, Hailai Amu’s 2024 tour concert, brings carefully crafted ‘narrative poems’. Allowing you and me in the vast sea of people to follow the music and be firm in what should be firm, be open-minded in what should be open-minded. In this city of reinforced concrete, feel a warm healing and consolation.
Let the world roll like a vast sea. Each of us is just like a driftwood, telling the story of driftwood and the sea. Always looking up at the starry sky, fully feeling the passage of time and fully searching for the meaning of existence. Although we also know that existence is meaning.
Hailai Amu has his own story. In 2024, he participated in the 2024 CCTV Spring Festival Gala with his ‘Better Meet in Person’, blowing the wind of meeting to all corners of the country.
This tour concert set sail from Chengdu on May 26. On November 9, it will come to Tianjin to have an unforgettable music feast with fans! The concert has three movements. From stage effects to song layout, let us drift from the tide to the other shore.
Chapter 1 Drifting * Us in the Sea of People
The vast land, a quiet and empty night. The desolate reflection on Lugu Lake. The newly grown trees are attracted by the distant sea breeze. Throw into the sea of people and start a life of wandering.Chapter 2: Tide * Moon Towards Hometown
Leaving one’s hometown and drifting is the current situation of most people. But because people are born tired, they are called ‘human beings’. Fortunately, someone sings my heartfelt feelings because they can empathize. The floating driftwoods gather together. Gather, warm each other and help each other. But the huge waves scatter the woods again. Some people continue to be confused, some are fragmented. The tide rises and falls – gathering and parting eventually.
Chapter 3: The Other Shore * Land on the Other Side of the Water
Extremely fortunate, I met every one of you on the way. Whether you are a passerby or a companion forever. Time will always pass. There will be healing, nostalgia, and relief. For those who are waiting, please continue to wait. For those who love, please don’t let go. After all, three meals a day are life. The place where the heart docks is landing.
Opening time: Saturday, November 09, starting at 19:30, about 120 minutes (subject to on-site conditions).
