Ocean City Sounds has added singer-songwriter Becky Hill to their day two line-up of their Ibiza Classics show at MTV presents: Ocean City Sounds, on Friday the 27th of July in Plymouth.
The “Sunrise in the East” singer- who’s debut album will be released later this year- will be joining Pete Tong, the Heritage Orchestra and conductor Jules Buckley onstage for two songs during the Ibiza Classics show, as well as performing her own set, at Plymouth Hoe.
“I’m excited to be joining the Ibiza Classics show in Plymouth and can’t wait to perform some of my own songs for you all in such a beautiful setting by the sea,” says Hill.
The show, will take place on Thursday the 26th and 27th of July at 6:00pm, consists of a 90-minute audio-visual extravaganza that will see massive dance tracks performed in a uniquely new way, with a laser light show and a 65-piece orchestra. Tickets can be purchased here.
The day one line-up, of the two-day event, includes performances from Bastille, Ella Eyre, Professor Green, and R3wire & Varski. The day two line-up includes DJ sets from Tom Findlay and BBC Radio 1’s Danny Howard.
Deputy Council Leader Pete Smith said: “We’re so excited to be bringing an incredible line-up of Ibiza inspired music to Plymouth in July. This is the only South West date for Pete Tong and the Heritage Orchestra’s Ibiza Classics show so it’s a brilliant opportunity for people in the city and wider region to enjoy a world-class show that has sold out arenas across the country.”
Hill, 24, first burst on to the scenes in the first series of The Voice UK in 2012, auditioning with John Legend’s “Ordinary People”. She joined Jessie J’s team and later reached the semi-final of the competition.
Before embarking on her own to forge her own path as an artist in her own right, she embarked on world-wide tours with Rudimental.
“I’ve really always written music for me instead of other people. It’s taken about six years, but I’m ready now and want to get my experiences out there,” Hill says.
Hill’s new solo single, “Sunrise in the East” was released on the 8th of June 2018, is the first taste from her forthcoming debut album, which she is currently working on with the likes of MNEK, MJ Cole and Two Inch Punch.
She has honed her writing skills through a series of massively successful collaborations, including a Number one with Oliver Heldens for “Gecko (Overdrive)”, a certified Gold top ten with Wilkinson for “Afterglow” and an international hit with Matoma for “False Alarm”, has seen her achieve huge chart success.
Her proven track record of success for penning a hit partnered with her distinctive and unique vocal, has made her one of the go-to writers and singers currently in the UK.
