Benson and Bacharach sign up for new ‘Apollo Nights’ dining experience
The Eventim Apollo Hammersmith will also host Joss Stone and Marc Almond in the series
George Benson, Marc Almond, Joss Stone and Burt Bacharach are being lined up for a new concert experience in London this summer, where the Eventim Apollo Hammersmith will be turned into a glamorous dining room. It’s called ‘The Apollo Nights Summer Series’; where guests will be hosted with drinks and a three-course meal from award-winning chef Bryn Williams while the artists perform an intimate set on each of five nights. Joss Stone and 90-year-old Burt Bacharach are reunited after their successful series of concerts in 2015, while singer Marc Almond, who recently recorded an album of boogie-woogie with Jools Holland, will host a night of cabaret and burlesque on 20th July.
Speaking to Jazz FM on Nigel Williams Saturday Show, George Benson said: “It sounds interesting, man I haven't seen that theatre since they renovated it but I'm sure it's gonna be fantastic. Food is an art too you know, and it's a pleasurable event too so hopefully with that and the music it's a double pleasure!"
