The Royal Hospital Chelsea, the historic home of the Chelsea Pensioners, is hosting three concerts this summer:
Friday 12th June Rufus Wainwright
Saturday 13th June Damien Rice
Sunday 14th June Alison Moyet
This is the first time that a concert series has been staged at this very special venue-The Hospital was founded by King Charles II in 1682 and is home to the Chelsea Pensioners, 300 ex-Army servicemen and women. A portion of the proceeds from the concert will go towards funding the care of the pensioners.
From the Producers: “Friday June 12th sees Rufus Wainwright perform at Live At Chelsea, described by Elton John as “the greatest songwriter on the planet”. Rufus has established himself as one of the great male vocalists and songwriters of his generation working in the world of Opera as well as collaborating with artists such as Robbie Williams, Elton John, David Byrne, Boy George, Joni Mitchell, Pet Shop Boys and producer Mark Ronson. “
