Moloko's Vocalist's Home Concert
Клубные российские · 01.11.2005
The fiery redhead, the Irishwoman with an explosive character, the girl who dared to abandon a commercially successful project for the sake of fulfilling her creative ambitions; the incredible Roisin Murphy and her band are returning to Moscow for their only home concert in XIII. Roisin Murphy is the voice and soul of Moloko, the driving force behind the entire collective. From the very foundation of the group, she has been the informal leader of Moloko, and all the main hits of the group, such as 'Sing It Back,' are associated by the audience with her divine voice. In Roisin's undeniable charisma, visitors of last year's Moloko concert at the 'Hermitage' garden were able to witness firsthand. In 2004, Roisin effectively left Moloko, focusing on recording her first solo album. In this work, she was assisted by the famous musician and producer Matthew Herbert. Roisin met him several years ago when Matthew was remixing Moloko's hits. The musicians quickly found a common language and now work closely together. In fact, Herbert is a co-author of all 12 songs on the 'Ruby Blue' album. The 'Ruby Blue' album continues the musical traditions of the Moloko group. It is intelligent dance music, enriched with jazz and blues intonations, with a subtle combination of electronic special effects and live instruments. Over all of this floats the charming voice of Roisin Murphy, skillfully pretending to be both a sophisticated socialite and a real hooligan from a rough area of London. The very first concert of Roisin Murphy's new group took place in the 'Hermitage' garden in Moscow on June 10, 2005. The approximately 6,000 concert-goers did not let the singer leave the stage for two hours, eagerly welcoming each of her new songs. This performance kicked off Roisin Murphy's European tour, during which she performed at the Sonar festival (Barcelona), in Warsaw, Vienna, Amsterdam, Haifa, and Helsinki. The upcoming club concert of Roisin Murphy's group will also be part of the singer's European tour. This show was not planned in advance – the idea to visit Moscow again came to Murphy spontaneously. The group will showcase an updated version of the Ruby Blue program in Moscow, significantly changed after six months of testing it on the European audience. It will be a one-and-a-half-hour live concert, involving all ten musicians of the group. The live performance will smoothly transition into an after party with Roisin Murphy and her team. November 5, Saturday (9:00 PM-6:00 AM) 9:00 PM: concert 11:00 PM: after party
