New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Multiplatinum-selling singer-songwriter
Ellie Goulding will be performing two special intimate shows with the Wordless
Music Orchestra conducted by Derrick Skye at
Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, NY on Thursday, November 16, and Friday, November 17, 2023.
Ellie's vision to perform with orchestra will come to life on the concert stage at these intimate shows, giving fans a rare opportunity to catch the global superstar in a truly unique setting. A passionate classical music fan herself, Ellie will be performing reimagined versions of hits and fan favorites from her wildly popular career-spanning catalogue, all arranged for orchestra. The shows will also feature selections from her latest critically acclaimed album, Higher Than Heaven, out now on Interscope Records.
Ellie has a voice that can pierce through bass-heavy club music, dance atop piano ballads, and breezily run up the hill of artsy synth-pop. Forbes raved, "Goulding has gotten crafting pop songs down to a science," while Billboard and Rolling Stone included Higher Than
Heaven on their "Best Of 2023 So Far" album round ups. Goulding recently nabbed a coveted Official Chart
Double in the UK, topping both the Official Singles and the Official Albums Chart. Spending eight weeks at #1 with her
Calvin Harris collab "Miracle," her new album Higher Than
Heaven also became her fourth chart-topping LP. Ellie now joins
Adele as the British female solo artists with the most Number 1 albums to their name, with four apiece. "
Miracle" also topped U.S. Dance
Radio Chart, while the song has over 300 million global streams.
