Richard Ashcroft announces Heritage Live concert for summer 2024
Richard Ashcroft will perform songs from his revered solo career and his time in The Verve.
Richard Ashcroft is set to play a huge outdoor show in Essex next summer.
The former Verve frontman is the first act confirmed for the Heritage Live concert series in 2024, with the musician set to rock the picturesque Audley End House and Gardens on August 3.
The 'A Song For The Lovers' hitmaker will be joined by Britpop stars Ocean Colour Scene and former Kasabian frontman Tom Meighan.
As well as Verve classics, which include 'The Drugs Don't Work', 'Bittersweet Symphony', 'Lucky Man' and 'Sonnet', fans can expect to hear Richard's acclaimed solo tunes.
Promoter Giles Cooper of GCE Live said: “We’re delighted to announce the first show of what will be our sixth year bringing live concerts to Audley End, one of the most beautiful venues in the country. It was a hugely successful year in 2023, and we already can’t wait for 2024.
"We’re really excited to announce Richard Ashcroft as the first headliner for next year. I remember seeing The Verve’s first-ever London gig at the King’s Head pub in Fulham in 1991, when I worked at NME, with just ten people in the audience. They were signed later that night, and over 30 years later Richard has cemented himself as one of rock’s truly iconic frontmen.”
Tickets for the show will go on pre-sale on October 11 at 9am, and fans must register via arep.co/p/richard-ashcroft-2024.
Tickets will then go on general sale on October 13 at 9am from axs.com/heritagelive.
