“Following unique collaborations with the likes of Laura Mvula, Jacob Collier, Florence + The Machine and St. Vincent, Jules Buckley and his own hand-picked ensemble return to the Proms with Weyes Blood – aka Natalie Mering – for an orchestral exploration of the American singer-songwriter’s wistful, transcendent folk-pop. Her expansive, other-worldly sound and rich, velvety voice offer the perfect platform for Buckley’s signature symphonic treatment. A typically imaginative meeting of musical minds in an intimate late-night setting.”
