On 15 July, Joy Oladokun comes to Somerset House, following the release of her acclaimed fifth studio album Observations From A Crowded Room. Six-time Grammy winner St. Vincent performs on 16 July – her only London date this summer – with a setlist that pulls from across her game-changing discography.
Scottish indie stars The Snuts headline on 17 July. The release of their third studio album last year saw the band become the first act since One Direction to land three Top 3 UK albums within three years. Australian indie-folk band The Paper Kites play their only UK date this year on 18 July, whilst London R&B group FLO bring their infectious discography to the stage on 19 July. Closing out the concert series, rapper Giggs promises to invite a host of special guests to Somerset House’s final show on 20 July.
