Adele world tour
Could Laurie Blue Adkins, mother to Adele, possible have guessed when she named her daughter that her little treasure would one day number among the “Adel” (nobility)? And we don’t just mean musical nobility here. In 2013, the singer was royally honoured with an OBE. And as if that wasn’t enough of a crowning achievement, Adele also scooped up two coveted trophies in the same year with her contribution to James Bond, “Skyfall”: a Golden Globe and an Oscar.
The mother to a three-year-old son is currently on a world tour. She is accompanied by eighteen live musicians. It quickly becomes clear that this is no wild rock n’ roll orchestra in need of taming, rather the sum of all the parts results in a crystal clear sound which is the soul of an Adele concert and which we can reproduce worldwide..
