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.
