The unique Benjamin Clementine, one of the most striking voices of recent years, is coming to Ljubljana with his unique series of intimate acoustic performances. You will be able to experience a unique live experience entitled An Evening With Benjamin Clementine & His Parisian String on May 17, 2019 at the Šiška Cinema
Benjamin Clementine is a 30-year-old Londoner who is regarded as one of the greatest poets and most original musicians of his generation. His voice is a mix of Edith Piaf and Nina Simone, and he acts like a modern-day Ray Charles at the piano. His musical style is unique, musically exciting and unexpectedly exciting. In his songs, he deals with life's problems, but at the same time remains poetic, mixes love and melancholy, and with sophisticated lyrics breaks down the traditional song structure and discovers his own innovative musical territory.

An Evening With Benjamin Clementine & His Parisian String Quintet will be supported on stage by five French musicians, including Barbara Le Liepvre on the cello. Clementine, accompanied by strings, will perform songs from his two critically acclaimed albums, his 2015 debut At Least For Now, for which he received mercury prize, and other plates I Tell A Fly from 2017, with which he continued the success of his debut album. NPR crowned him the "musical George Orwell for our time." It should be emphasized that he announced only 24 concerts for May and June, and one of them will be May 17, 2019 in the Šiška Cinema.
