Idiot Prayer - Nick Cave Alone at Alexandra Palace
Nick Cave performs a special stripped-back set on the piano, with songs chosen from early Bad Seeds and Grinderman tracks to 2019 album Ghosteen, at London's Alexandra Palace.
Nick Cave plays songs at the piano from across his repertoire in a rarely seen stripped-back set, from early Bad Seeds and Grinderman right through to the Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds 2019 album, Ghosteen. The performance, which was filmed at London’s Alexandra Palace, features tracks including Into My Arms, The Mercy Seat, Higgs Boson Blues and Girl in Amber.
Recorded in June 2020, as the UK slowly emerged from lockdown, and conceived as a reaction to the confinement and isolation of the preceding months, Idiot Prayer is a souvenir from a strange and precarious moment in history.
