Sigrid Set To Play Intimate Show At London’s Lafayette This Summer
The show comes on the heels of Sigrid’s latest single, ‘Mirror.’
After making her triumphant return with a new single “Mirror,” and with her sophomore effort officially on the way, Sigrid has announced that she’ll be heading to London’s Lafayette to perform a rare intimate show before dropping in at the main stage at Reading and Leeds Festival.
Set to be her very first live show since the pandemic hit, she’ll be performing for the lucky crowd on August 26, and you can sign up here to grab a ticket.
It took quite a journey for Sigrid to arrive at her second album. Last year, while Sigrid was in LA working on the songs that would become the follow-up to 2019’s Sucker Punch, she suddenly had to return home to Norway due to the global pandemic. On her flight, she realized she had the genesis of “Mirror,” the kaleidoscopic new single that is out now via Island Records.
Since arriving onto the world stage in 2017 with “Don’t Kill My Vibe,” the 24-year-old has toured the globe, amassed over 1.2 billion streams and sold 1 million album units, laying the foundation for highly anticipated new music. “Mirror” was written for early evening festival slots that have become Sigrid’s definitive stage, and the thousands of fans who will “feel the bass in their chest” says Sigrid, adding, “I walk into the studio and know I want to make a big chorus!” “Mirror is a track evocative of Sigrid’s calling card of zooming in on the personal whilst speaking to the universal: “I love who I see, looking at me in the Mirror.”
“Mirror” was finished in Denmark―having begun the song with longtime collaborator Emily Warren―alongside songwriters who found themselves in a similar position to Sigrid, returning to Scandinavia from Los Angeles during the onset of the pandemic. Veteran songwriter Caroline Ailin (Dua Lipa, Julia Michaels) and producer Sly (Jonas Brothers, Dua Lipa) worked with Sigrid on finishing the song, which began, like all of Sigrid’s songs, at the piano.
