Alex Lambert Praises San Diego Crowd and Teases Paso Robles Next

Alex Lambert took to the stage at San Diego’s Moonshine Beach on Friday, celebrating two of his favorite things: “San Diego Livin’” and “a Voodoo woman named Livy.” The singer-songwriter delivered an energetic performance, clocking in a set full of fan favorites and new originals before teasing his tour’s next chapter in Paso Robles.

San Diego Livin’: A Crowd To Remember

Lambert’s post-show caption summed it up in two lines: “I love 2 things:
1. San Diego Livin’
2. A Voodoo woman named Livy.” Judging by the photos shared—shot by concert photographer Sticks & Pics—the city’s coastal audience brought the “right amount of crazy,” as Lambert put it. The crowd chanted lyrics back to him in perfect harmony, while stage lights danced across palm trees, framing the singer’s silhouette against a purple-tinged sky.

Bassist KB2BA, guitarist Michael Troy, multi-instrumentalist Gabriel Thomas Broussard, drummer Clev Drums and backing vocalist Olivia Cameron rounded out the touring band. Each member appeared in the carousel of images, capturing moments from intimate acoustic passages to full-band anthems. At one point, Lambert paused mid-song to gesture toward the crowd, proclaiming, “San Diego, you’re wild!”

Lambert had teased the San Diego date earlier in the week. In a prior Instagram post, he shared snaps from a Malibu weekend off—complete with a home-cooked family dinner and a visit from the local PD—before promising, “See y’all tonight, San Diego! @moonshinebeach.” His downtime seemed to fuel the onstage intensity, with his voice cutting clear through the sea breeze.

A Voodoo Muse Named Livy

Interspersed through the set, Lambert dedicated a special moment to “the Voodoo woman named Livy.” Fans recognized that as a nod to Olivia Cameron, a longtime collaborator and creative partner who’s been touring alongside him. Cameron’s harmonies colored several tracks, and the pair closed the main set with a stripped-down duet that drew a roar from the venue.

Lambert’s relationship with Cameron has threaded through recent social posts. In March, he shared a photo of the two backstage at his opening gig for Whiskey Myers, writing, “No matter where we are, when I’m with you I’m home.” The couple’s playful banter—and mutual respect—have become a highlight for fans following Lambert’s journey from American Idol alum to Nashville-based indie artist.

Next Stop: Paso Robles

“Paso Robles has their work cut out for them tonight,” Lambert teased in his San Diego caption. He’s referring to his appearance at Vina Robles Amphitheatre, where he’ll open for Whiskey Myers on their west-coast run. Earlier this week, Lambert posted a backstage snapshot with the country-rock band, encouraging followers: “Opening for @whiskeymyers! Y’all go get them tickets 🎟.”

Paso Robles marks the sixth date on The Select Tour, which pairs Lambert with fellow Americana acts under the Select Live Music banner. After California, the tour swings into Arizona and Colorado before wrapping up in Texas later this month.

Fans can catch Lambert performing a blend of his introspective singer-songwriter material and his reimagined covers—he’s become known for injecting folk, soul and subtle R&B grooves into each track. His self-released singles have racked up millions of streams, earning praise from outlets like Rolling Stone Country and Billboard Nashville.

Tour Recap And Upcoming Dates

Lambert’s itinerary through May includes:
• Paso Robles, CA at Vina Robles Amphitheatre (opening for Whiskey Myers)
• Flagstaff, AZ at Orpheum Theatre
• Phoenix, AZ with special guests on select dates
• Denver, CO at Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom
• Houston, TX supporting Whiskey Myers

Each stop features Lambert’s core band and adds local guests for mini jam sessions. Photographers like Sticks & Pics will continue to document the run, sharing vibrant shots of the performances across social channels.

Lambert’s social-first approach has turned every concert into a digital meeting point. He often posts between songs—using simple captions and tagged handles—to keep fans connected. It’s a strategy that sparked buzz when he cheekily wrote, “San Diego, you were just the right amount of crazy,” and now has Paso Robles buzzing for a similar experience.

With his tour gaining momentum, Alex Lambert is proving that a mix of authentic storytelling, dynamic band chemistry and strategic social moments can turn regional gigs into must-see events for Americana and country-rock fans alike.

As he signs off from San Diego and loads the van for Paso Robles, Lambert’s closing message rings clear: “Thanks for the love, and we’ll see you on the road.”
