The program unfolds theatrically, inspired by duo tours and venue acoustics.

Jules Buckley will mark his 25th BBC Prom with a one-night collaboration featuring St. Vincent at the Royal Albert Hall on 3rd September, reimagining her catalogue with a full orchestra.

“The concept here is not just to slap an orchestral wallpaper behind an artist,” says Buckley. “We’ve worked together to find a new interpretation of St. Vincent’s sound. Annie and her keys player, Rachel, have toured as a duo, so that’s been an inspiration for how to reimagine some of the pieces with a larger ensemble. And Annie’s an amazing guitarist. If you hear a track like Now Now from her debut record—we’ve kept a lot of that in there, but we’ll be expanding into new realms at the same time, to create something really unique.”

According to Buckley, the programme draws from across St. Vincent’s catalogue and will be structured as a dramatic arc. “We've looked at it like I’m creating a theatrical plot, with Annie and Rachel as the two main actors, because the pieces have such strong imagery,” Buckley explains. “It’s going to be pretty dark and shocking at times, and intimate at others. I want people to feel shocked, and to leave the gig wanting to see it again, even though we’ll never do it .”
