After a couple of months out of the limelight, Beverley Knight returned to our TV screens on Friday morning to chat about the forthcoming UK tour and a performance of the new single ‘The Queen Of Starting Over‘. Check it out below -
Following last month’s barnstorming performance at London’s ICA for the inaugural I Tunes Festival, Beverley Knight is releasing a two part live ep featuring tracks from July’s live show, a performance which many fans pronounced as her finest gig to date. The EPs will feature tracks from Beverley’s latest critically acclaimed Top 10 album, Music City Soul, as well as hits from her platinum selling ‘Voice’ collection.
Part 1, the No Man’s Land EP, will be available from August 21st – the worldwide launch date of the I Tunes Festival downloads – and will include 3 live tracks: No Man’s Land, Shoulda Woulda Coulda (Philly version) and Saviour.
Part 2 will be the Queen Of Starting Over EP, released on October 15th, just prior to Beverley’s biggest ever UK tour. It will feature 3 further live tracks from the ICA show: Queen Of Starting Over, Black Butta and Piece Of My Heart.
Last week Beverley fulfilled a long-term dream with the first of two special guest appearances supporting her musical hero Prince at London’s O2 Arena on Friday night. She played to blistering 30-minute set to open for him and he then personally invited her to jam with him at the aftershow where he played guitar with her on Keep This Fire Burning and Piece Of My Heart. She then sang with his band backing him on hits like A Love Bizarre and Controversy as well as taking lead on a blistering version of Sweet Thing.
