Little Boots has revealed that she will perform as part of ABBA‘s upcoming ‘Voyage’ concerts in London.
The Swedish pop icons announced the “revolutionary” live experience last week (September 2), while also sharing their first new songs in 40 years: ‘I Still Have Faith In You’ and ‘Don’t Shut Me Down’.
Beginning next May, the special live shows will present a “digital” version of ABBA (not holograms) performing alongside a 10-piece live band at the purpose-built 3,000-capacity ‘ABBA Arena’ at London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. The ambitious event will feature 22 tracks, including the aforementioned new singles.
Taking to social media today (September 6), electro-pop artist Little Boots – real name Victoria Hesketh – revealed to fans that she will join the “ABBAtars” on stage to perform keyboards, synth and backing vocals.
Hesketh explained that she is “a lifelong ABBA fan” and said it was “an absolute honour” to be involved with the ‘Voyage’ project. “I am beyond excited for the journey to continue and hope you can join us,” she added.
