Sam Smith Set To Release Abbey Road Performance As Live Album
Available March 19, ‘Love Goes: Live At Abbey Road Studios’ captures Smith’s only live performance of 2020.
In October of last year, Sam Smith released Love Goes – their long-awaited follow-up to 2017’s The Thrill of It All. While the pandemic made it impossible for Smith to tour around their acclaimed, third studio album, they thrilled fans with an exclusive concert, live-streamed from London’s Abbey Road Studios. Now, fans can re-live that special evening through Love Goes: Live At Abbey Road Studios, available on March 19.
Smith announced the album on Twitter today, sharing a trailer for the album. “This performance and the whole experience of creating this show was so special, and I’m so happy I was able to share it with you,” they wrote. “Sending so much love to you all xx.”
Hello gorgeous people… I’ve seen your messages & I’m so happy to share the news that I’m releasing ‘Love Goes: Live At Abbey Road Studios’ later this month.
