Taylor Swift Confirmed Headliner At Amazon Music’s ‘Prime Day’ Concert

Amazon Music has announced Taylor Swift will headline its ‘Prime Day’ Concert, that will be streamed live from New York City and include performances by SZA, Dua Lipa and Becky G.

Comedian and actress Jane Lynch will host the show, and it will take place at an undisclosed location and stream live on 10 July at 9 pm EST. After the concert airs live, subscribers in 200 countries can still watch the show on Amazon Prime for a limited time.

This concert is part of Amazon’s big push for their annual Prime Day on 15 and 16 July. The online retailer and streaming giant hosted a similar show last year that featured Ariana Grande, Alessia Cara, Kelsea Ballerini and Julia Michaels as performers.

Swift is in full album promotion mode, prepping for the release of her highly-anticipated album Lover, which comes out 23 August. The singer has already released two singles, ‘You Need to Calm Down’ and ‘Me!’, featuring Panic! at the Disco’s Brendon Urie and performed some of her new material at the annual iHeartRadio Wango Tango concert in Los Angeles on 1 June.

The star-powered, female-driven line-up also includes Mexican-American pop singer Becky G, who’s riding the charts with her new single ‘Green Light Go’, and Dua Lipa, the Grammy-award winning UK pop sensation, who’s coming off of her biggest year yet and working on a follow-up to her 2017 self-titled debut.

Meanwhile R&B star SZA recently teamed up with the Weeknd and Travis Scott for ‘Power Is Power’ off the Game of Thrones compilation, For the Throne.

During the Prime Day Concert, Amazon will also be promoting some of their original series and giving sneak peaks of new seasons including Carnival Row, the upcoming fantasy drama series starring Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne, along with Modern Love, a romantic series based on the popular New York Times column of the same name and clips of The Marvelous Mrs Maisel and Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan ahead of their new seasons.
