The concert was hailed as “an uplifting, moving triumph” by the Evening Standard, and now Sade will release their live DVD/CD and Blu-ray ‘Bring Me Home – Live 2011’ on July 30th.
After a hiatus of 18 years, Sade brought their long awaited concert to the UK, playing at the London O2 Arena, Birmingham NEC, and Manchester MEN Arena. The iconic band’s 106-date tour across America, Canada, Europe, South America and Australia, played to over 800,000 people and was the 6th highest grossing tour in North America for 2011.
During the American leg of the tour, acclaimed British director, Sophie Muller, captured the band’s two-hour visually stunning show for release on Blu Ray and DVD, with accompanying Live CD. Their 22 song concert, featuring hits from their 28 year repertoire, won the hearts of critics and was nominated for the music industry publication Pollstar for two awards: ‘Most Creative Stage Production’ and ‘2011 Major Tour of The Year Award’.
In addition to the concert, the elusive Sade Adu also grants fans rare glimpses of behind-the-stage scenes with a 20-minute documentary, also filmed by Sophie Muller, Sade’s creative director. It captures candid moments of Sade exclusively for this new release. The package also includes a short technical documentary by Stuart Matthewman, and outtakes from the crew.
Fans and critics alike have hailed the show for its intimate atmosphere, eye-catching production, and dazzling imagery, making this DVD/CD a must-have for the every Sade fan, and recent converts to this iconic British band alike.
