On Tour with BIIA

Portuguese electronic music artist BIIA recently completed a tour from Las Vegas to underground venues in Tokyo, Taipei, and Seoul. Here, she shares her photo diary documenting the journey through her own lens.

Following the release of her “HUMAN SKIN” EP, the successful Boiler Room showcase that has almost reached 1 million views and her collaboration with Måneskin’s Victoria De Angelis at Neopop Festival, BIIA captured this recent tour through candid photography. The diary begins with her EDC Las Vegas performance,a festival she described as “a city full of lights and distractions” where she played to thousands of festival-goers. From there, her camera followed her to Asia for three shows across four days. This is her visual story of life on the road.

When I arrived at the venue I realized the scale of EDC Las Vegas. A city that is a festival full of lights and distractions that took my mind on a journey. I looked like a kid in a candy shop.

An experience I will never forget. I will work to ensure that I continue to be part of the EDC lineup in the coming years, but even if that doesn’t happen, that moment made it all worthwhile.

At the end of the festival, of course I had to gamble at the casino with my friends. This is Vegas baby. Plus my birthday.

My ASIA TOUR was everything I could ask and even more. The hospitality and warmth of the people is something I’ll always be thankful for. It feels I never reciprocate enough.

Giving these people some joy.

When I say the hospitality is crazy, I mean it.

After 3 gigs in the 4 days of touring: Tokyo, Taipei and Seoul, a little time to be a tourist.

Time to go home 2 hours after my last set in Tokyo. I love to tour but I also love to go back to my routine. I miss that a lot when I am far from home so I am always in a mission try to find the perfect balance. I go home but i go home full of love. See you next time.
