Xantoné Blacq: Introducing…HAPPY WEiRDO
Last Show: Friday 22 nd March 2019
PizzaExpress Live (Holborn)
What do Mark Ronson, Amy Winehouse, Laura Mvula, Nigel Kennedy, Michal Urbaniak, Jessie J, Candi Staton, and Pee Wee Ellis have in common? They have all relied on Xantoné Blacq’s (pron. Zan-Toe-Nay) voice, keyboard and percussion playing in their bands. Xan was recently seen on BBC In Concert singing and playing a duet with Emeli Sandé as the keyboard player in her band. He is ebullient, ever optimistic, and the life-affirming music reflects the man.
