London singer-songwriter Louis Dunford will release ‘Live At Hammersmith’, his first live EP.on 26th January.
Recorded during his stellar sold-out performance at Eventim Apollo in October 2023, the EP epitomises Louis’ incredible live stature and illustrates just how much his storytelling comes alive on stage.
From anthemic ballads to intimate tearjerkers, ‘Live At Hammersmith’ features goosebump-inducing renditions of Louis’ musical catalogue including ‘Lucy’, ‘When We Were Hooligans’ and Arsenal FC fan-favourite ‘The Angel (North London Forever)’. Other songs including ‘Regretamine’, ‘Bossman’ and ‘Ballad of Benjamin’ from his previous Morland and Popham EPs also feature.
The energy in the room is palpable throughout the EP; from raucous chants to thousands of voices singing in unison, it captures the magic of Louis’ biggest live performance to date, proving that there’s no experience quite like a Louis Dunford show.
Live videos from the night are available to watch on Louis’ YouTube channel (watch here), and a limited number of signed CDs of ‘Live From Hammersmith’ are also available to purchase from Louis’ website (order here).
Speaking about the EP, Louis said: “This EP is dedicated to every person who ever bought a ticket to one of my shows. From the back room of a pub to a sold out Hammersmith Apollo. These songs are ours.”
Louis has had a rapid rise to success in a short space of time and has garnered key tastemaker support from i-D, Clash, Complex, British GQ, and Wonderland. His success has seen him sell out numerous shows, including O2 Kentish Town Forum, Eventim Apollo, Union Chapel, and Electric Ballroom. He was also personally invited by The Libertines to support the band at their massive Wembley Arena show in summer 2022.
This year, Louis has already sold out several dates of his upcoming acoustic tour. These include shows in Liverpool, Sheffield, Newcastle & more. Now, he also announces a fresh set of extra dates to the tour which will take place in May and June, allowing fans to get up close with Louis for a special series of intimate gigs in Cardiff, Birmingham, Leicester & more.
