“Preguntas a las 11:11” Comes Alive: Ela Taubert’s Stunning L.A. Debut (Recap)
Ela Taubert’s first U.S. tour stop for Preguntas a las 11:11 felt less like a concert and more like stepping into her diary at golden hour. As soon as she walked onstage at the famous Fonda Theater in Hollywood, Ca, glittering under warm and dreamlike lights, the crowd erupted. Welcoming her with the kind of tenderness usually reserved for artists who’ve been touring for years. But Ela carried that presence with confident, vulnerable and magnetic all at once.
Opening with fan favorite “¿Por Qué No Me Fui Antes?,” she set the tone for the night. Intimate, nostalgic, and steeped in the emotional universe she’s built in her album. Her voice floated over the room, soft but powerful, wrapping the audience in a collective moment of reflection. Between songs, Ela shared stories about writing music in her room growing up, manifesting her dreams, being in her first U.S. tour and the magic she finds in small moments.
The setlist moved seamlessly between heartbreak anthems and shimmering love songs, each paired with visuals that made the stage feel like a portal. Her more emotional tracks and warm celestial tones for her hopeful ones. Fans sang every word back, loud, creating a kind of communal therapy session.
One of the sweetest moments of the night came courtesy of a tiny fan, one of Ela’s “amigos/besties,” as she calls and adresses her fans. No more than five or six years old, proudly holding a sign announcing it was her very first concert. Ela spotted her almost instantly and lit up, pointing her out with a huge smile. Throughout the show, the little one could be seen dancing, singing and soaking in every second like it was pure magic. And just when the night couldn’t get any more special, after the final song, Ela signed her poster. It was the kind of moment that turns a first concert into an unforgettable one.
By the time she closed the night, Ela had turned a small venue into a universe built entirely from feeling, proof that her storytelling translates effortlessly across borders. She closed out the show with her smash hit “¿Como Páso?”. Without a doubt, Preguntas a las 11:11 in the U.S. wasn’t just a debut. It was a love letter to the fans who believed in her long before this moment and a promise that she’s only getting started.
