EMELI SANDÉ ANNOUNCES INTIMATE UK AND EUROPEAN SHOWSANNOUNCES INTIMATE UK AND EUROPEAN SHOWS
NEW SINGLE OUT NOW NEW ALBUM, LONG LIVE THE ANGELS OUT NOVEMBER 11TH
To celebrate the release of ‘Hurts’ and forthcoming new album ‘Long Live The Angels’, Emeli Sandé is pleased to announce her most intimate shows in years. This October will see Emeli perform across 4 UK cities starting in Glasgow before taking in her hometown of Aberdeen, moving onto Manchester and then culminating at London’s beautifully iconic St John at Hackney. Emeli says, “I really wanted to reconnect with my fans on an intimate level, it's been a really long time, so much has happened and these small shows felt like the perfect way to catch up.” The tour announcement follows Emeli’s return with epic new single ‘Hurts’ which launched on Friday. The track is the first single to be released from her hugely anticipated second album, Long Live the Angels. Emeli premiered the track on Radio 1’s Live Lounge, alongside a reworked version of ‘Heaven’, No.1 single, ‘Read all about it’ as well as a stunning cover of Rihanna’s ‘Four Five Seconds’. Recorded in New York, L.A, London and Oxford, Long Live The Angels, crackles with energy and a sense of euphoria for both listener and artist. Certain tracks may be slower in spirit, but are dynamic in delivery, “I made sure the production wasn’t overworked,” Emeli points out, “And I really went for it vocally!” Sandé’s outstanding voice sits at the heart of the record, underscoring the singer’s mastery of both technique and form but also her natural intuition as a vocalist. Long Live the Angels marks a brand new chapter in her life, “I’m proud of my first album and thankful for the experiences it gave me, but I’m so much happier with my new album and with where I am in life.” Tour Dates 2nd October– Oran Mor – Glasgow 3rd October – The Tunnels – Aberdeen 5th October – Gorilla – Manchester 6th October – St John at Hackney– London 12th October – People’s Place – Amsterdam 13th October – Flow – Paris 17th October – Lido – Berlin 20th October – Nalen – Stockholm Exclusive access to UK tickets from https://www.facebook.com/emelisande https://twitter.com/emelisande September 19, 2016 12:28pm ET by Virgin EMI |
