On 29th February 2008, multi-award winning artiste Alicia Keys will perform at The O2 as part of her nationwide UK tour. With over 25 million albums sold worldwide and 9 Grammy wins, this will be the first opportunity for fans to watch Alicia perform songs from her yet to be released third studio album ‘As I am’ including the lead single ‘No One’.Alicia Keys will grace the stage for the first time in 3 years, marking the release of her third studio album ‘As I am’. The album includes a ‘Lesson Learned’ featuring blues guitarist John Mayer and ‘Prelude to a Kiss’ produced by the hit maker Timbaland. Referred to by critics as ‘Today’s Aretha Franklin’, Keys has successfully established herself as one of the world’s leading vocalists. Bursting on to the scene in 2001 with her critically acclaimed debut album ‘Songs in A Minor’, Keys delivered a musical hybrid of soul, hip hop, jazz and classical. That was followed up in 2003 with the stellar album ‘Diary of Alicia Keys’, spurning the soul classic ‘You Don’t Know My Name’. David Campbell, Chief Executive of AEG Europe, said: “Alicia Keys has one of the most astounding voices in music today. Last week we announced Celine Dion, this week Alicia Keys, just wait until next week...” |
