Alexandra Palace
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds released its seventeenth studio album "Ghosteen" on 4 October 2019. The band announced a 33-date European and UK tour, due to begin on 19 April 2020 in Lisbon, Portugal and conclude on 17 June in Tel Aviv, Israel. An 18-date North American tour, beginning on 16 September in Minneapolis, Minnesota, US and concluding on 17 October in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, was also later announced. A month prior to its commencement, it was announced that the European and UK tour was canceled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, with all shows rescheduled to later dates in 2021; three months later the North American tour was also canceled. In lieu of the canceled shows, Cave recorded a solo performance that June at Alexandra Palace's West Hall in London. The production involved significant precautions against the spread of COVID-19.
The album is a real beauty, a piano, and Nick all by yourself :) From it, you can watch below when Cave plays the previously unreleased song “Euthanasia”, originally written during the "Skeleton Tree" period.
