Lady Gaga Announces Livestream Supporting Album With Tony Bennett
The ‘Love for Sale’ livestream is scheduled for September 30.
Lady Gaga has announced plans for a global livestream concert which will also allow people to attend designated fan zones in London.
The one-off livestream, which takes place next Thursday (September 30), will see Gaga perform jazz classics and tracks from her forthcoming new album with Tony Bennett, Love For Sale.
Fans will be able to watch the show online but also attend fan zones at Westfield London in Shepherd’s Bush and Stratford City.
Westfield will host Little Monsters in an intimate pop-up jazz theater inspired by the new album and includes premium viewing of Gaga’s performance along with food, drinks, and limited edition merchandise – all free of charge.
Registration for exclusive access to the ultimate Love For Sale live viewing party is free and available now.
Fans must register to attend online or in-person and attendees at the Westfield Fan Zone viewing parties must abide by local government COVID-19 regulations and guidelines. The show will support both Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation and Bennett’s Exploring the Arts.
The Cole Porter tribute is set for release on October 1. This historic album will be Tony’s last studio recording, showcasing the Porter songbook of classic popular music with both duet and solo selections from both artists, accompanied by Tony Bennett’s quartet, The Brian Newman Quintet, along with big band and orchestral arrangements by Marion Evans and Jorge Callandrelli.
Love for Sale will also be Bennett’s last studio recording, following the announcement that the iconic singer has been battling Alzheimer’s disease since 2016. Following his diagnosis, Bennett and Gaga headed into Electric Lady in New York City to start recording Love for Sale and wrapped the album in 2020.
In August, Bennett performed his final live shows, as part of a two-night residency with Lady Gaga at Radio City Music Hall in celebration of his 95th birthday.
