Paul Weller announces outdoor performance at the Royal Hospital in Chelsea
Paul Weller has announced an outdoor show at the Royal Hospital in Chelsea – the home of the Chelsea Pensioners.
The show will see the courtyard of the Royal Hospital Chelsea transformed into a unique venue for the concert.
Well-known for his time in two legendary bands in addition to his solo work, Mr Weller began his musical career in 1972 as a member of The Jam.
The band had hit singles such as ‘Going Underground’, ‘That’s Entertainment;’ ‘Eton Rifles’, and ‘Town Called Malice’.
The band released six albums before splitting in 1982, with Mr Weller going on to form The Style Council, with whom he released a further six LPs before they disbanded in 1989.
His solo career launched in 1992, starting with the release of his self-titled effort that same year.
He has gone on to release a total of 16 solo studio albums, including this year’s ‘Fat Pop (Volume 1)’.
Mr Weller was the recipient of the BRIT Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music in 2006, as well as the NME Award for Godlike Genius in 2010.
His new album ‘An Orchestrated Songbook’ that features music from right across his career reworked and redefined alongside The BBC Symphony Orchestra and acclaimed conductor Jules Buckley.
