English recording artist Imogen Heap is set to perform a virtual show broadcast from her own residence. The performance is a part of the exclusive sessions, Royal Albert Home, brought by Royal Albert Hall. Heap’s show is scheduled on Friday 29th May at 19:30 BST here.
During this difficult and strange time, all of us have to seek haven in the comfort of our own homes to protect ourselves from the outbreak of coronavirus that has taken thousands of lives. A wide range of artists and organisers in the music industry has collaborated to help everyone from the lockdown misery with numerous virtual shows.
This time, iconic music venue Royal Albert Hall has come to save us from such stay-at-home humdrum with special online gigs called Royal Albert Home. The event has invited musicians across the genres to perform at their own houses for fans, with the likes of Jack Garratt, KT Tunstall, Rufus Wainwright, Ashley Henry, and many more.
The Royal Albert Home event is available to watch for free via the official site. However, the audience can donate to help the hall secure its finance during the lockdown.
Imogen Heap, a respected musician, singer/songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist, is the latest artist set to perform for the charity event. She is renowned for UK smash hits “Just for Now” and “Goodnight and Go” from 2005’s ‘Speak for Yourself‘. Her latest studio album is ‘Sparks‘ released back in 2014.
Apart from her own solo projects, Heap is also known for her collaboration with mainstream pop star Taylor Swift for the track, “Clean“, from her blockbuster record ‘1989‘ and Canadian electronic producer deadmau5 for the track, “Telemiscommunications“, from ‘Album Title Goes Here‘. She also composed music for the long-standing West End play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
For her performance at Royal Albert Home, the 42-year-old legend asks fans to curate a setlist through the hall’s website. Now, the vote is closed, but check out the performance this Friday to see which songs she will play!
