Paul Weller takes to the stage for his first live gig in two years, with the ±«Óãtv Symphony Orchestra in a performance curated and arranged by the multi-talented Jules Buckley.
Together over the course of the evening we will track Paul Weller’s career from his early work in The Jam to brand new songs from an album we haven’t even heard yet. As is his nature, Weller will pick up on the past, but with a forward-looking eye, as he invites special guests, Celeste, Boy George and James Morrison to the stage to celebrate his music and its influence. Classic songs including ‘You Do Something to Me’, ‘English Rose’ and ‘Wild Wood’ along with tracks from his latest number 1 album On Sunset will be heard as never before in brand-new orchestral arrangements by Jules Buckley.
With a career spanning nearly 50 years, Paul Weller remains one of the most successful British singer-songwriters of all time. Known for pushing the boundaries of musical genres to a new level, Jules Buckley curates a special one-off experience as he gives Paul Weller’s wide-ranging songs the symphonic treatment.
