Somerset House Summer Series with American Express® returns to London this July for eleven nights of essential sounds from some of the world’s most compelling artists. Hosted in the spectacular enclosed surroundings of Somerset House’s open-air courtyard, the live music festival affords close access to the artists on stage, promising personal and powerful performances with superlative sounds resonating all around, to ensure an electrifying experience.
Somerset House Summer Series has a highly acclaimed reputation for platforming a diverse range of international talent and genres. Live music experiences have been a cornerstone of Somerset House’s cultural programme ever since it transformed into a leading international arts destination in 2000, with a rollcall of incredible former headliners including Amy Winehouse, Adele, Patti Smith, The Roots and Rosalía, and support acts such as Kojey Radical, Little Simz and Wolf Alice.
In celebration of Somerset House’s 25th birthday as the home of cultural innovators, the festival has extended a special invite to some of the most influential artists in modern times, with an exclusive London show from six-time Grammy award winner St. Vincent, a one-off London date from UK rap legend Giggs featuring a host of very special guests, and in a Summer Series-first, a live score will be performed to a film premiere from Somerset House Studios’ artist Akinola Davies Jr, in a unique artistic commission by Somerset House.
Carefully selected in honour of their pioneering, cross-disciplinary cultural work, this year’s artists represent originality and reflect their communities in a way that is completely unique to them. There will be further unforgettable performances from the likes of Rizzle Kicks, Freya Ridings, The Snuts, Jacob Banks, Joy Oladokun, Parov Stelar, The Paper Kites, and FLO making this year’s Somerset House Summer Series one of the most exhilarating editions yet.
