Little Simz is set to feature in a new BBC One special, performing tracks from her forthcoming album alongside classic hits at London’s Maida Vale Studios.
‘Little Simz: Live at the BBC’, hosted by Clara Amfo, will document the artist’s career progression from her early beginnings as an 11-year-old freestyling on BBC Radio 1Xtra through to her Mercury Prize victory and Glastonbury Pyramid Stage performance. The 30-minute programme will showcase performances filmed at the historic recording facility.
The special will air on BBC One on 4th June at 11:40pm, with an additional broadcast on BBC Three the following evening at 9:55pm. The programme will also be available via BBC iPlayer.
