For the first time in over 10 years and for one night only, PhatNights proudly present the critically acclaimed, Grammy award winning, D’ANGELO, live in concert at O2 Academy Brixton, London, on Friday 3rd of February 2012, with full live band.
The concert follows a decade’s sabbatical by the neo-soul singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and record producer. A founding artist of the neo-soul movement, his debut album Brown Sugar (1995) and follow up, Voodoo (2000) were both platinum certified and in 2008 cited as "two of the most excellent and singular R&B albums of the past 15 years"[1], with Voodoo featuring in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. To date, collaborations include Lauryn Hill, Anthony Hamilton, Methodman and Fela Kuti.
The third album, considered one of the most anticipated in popular music, is said to include contributions from none other than Prince, along with other musical heavyweights like Ceelo Green and Mark Ronson.
Now, with the album-release confirmed for 2012, his musical resurrection has seen worldwide concert dates sell out just days after being announced. His London show at the legendary Brixton Academy is certain to follow that precedent.
This one-off show from the renowned live vocalist and stage performer will feature some new exciting material as well as classics like Brown Sugar, Lady, Me and Those Dreamin Eyes and Untitled (How does it feel?). With Q magazine naming him in their list of the "50 Bands To See Before You Die", can you really afford to miss this?
