Modern music legend ANOHNI is set to perform the music of Lou Reed at a special show at The National Concert Hall this November. ‘Dark Blue ANOHNI Sings Lou Reed’ will see the British-born, New York City based singer, songwriter and visual artist make their National Concert Hall debut in what promises to be a truly memorable occasion.

There’s perhaps nobody better suited to undertake such a concert, ANOHNI’s relationship with Lou Reed stretches back over two decades. In 2003, she was a supporting vocalist on the Animal Serenade tour and performed on a number of tracks on Reed’s Edgar Allan Poe inspired album The Raven. In 2006/2007 she sang backing vocals for Reed’s first full performance of Berlin in New York and Sydney. In addition, Reed contributed vocals and guitar to ‘Fistful of Love’ from I Am a Bird Now.

In 2013, ANOHNI invited Lou Reed to join her in singing ‘Candy Says’ during an encore at Salle Pleyel in Paris, at what would be his last public performance. ANOHNI’s song ‘Sliver of Ice’ describes her final interaction with the legendary singer and poet.

Tues. 26^th November 8pm. Tickets €40, €49.50, €59.50, €74.50 [10% Discount for NCH Friends Members and Groups of 10 or more]
