What the organisers say

Platinum-selling, multi-talented Anne-Marie is the latest stellar act to be announced for the 2023 Eden Sessions.


The Essex-born singer-songwriter and high-profile coach on the TV show The Voice UK will take to the stage in front of the spectacular Eden Biomes on Friday July 7. 

Already due to play this year’s Sessions are global superstar Lionel Richie (June 7), viral rock sensation Yungblud (June 10), top USA rockers The War on Drugs (June 18), American singer-songwriter Jack Johnson (June 23), Southern Californian, Grammy-nominated Incubus (June 24), the iconic Pet Shop Boys (June 28), and the awesome Kasabian (July 1).

 

Rita Broe, Managing Director of Eden Sessions Ltd, said: “Anne-Marie is a fabulous addition to what promises to be one of our greatest-ever Sessions summers. We can’t wait to welcome this amazingly talented young artist to our stage.”

 

Anne-Marie’s unique, striking voice first hit the music radar when she guested on tracks by Rudimental and in 2016 she went on to score a number one hit as the main vocalist on Clean Bandit’s worldwide smash, Rockabye.


Since then the former three-time world Karate champion’s self-effacing attitude and anthemic, highly personal songs about being cheated on, body issues and gender-free love have made an extraordinary connection with millions of fans across the globe. 

Her first solo album, Speak Your Mind – rammed with tracks to dance, laugh and cry to – was the UK’s biggest debut album of 2018. 

It swiftly propelled her into a whole new level of celebrity as a style icon, agony aunt and a woman fearless enough to tell the truth through exceptional tunes. 

She went on to be acclaimed the Los40 International Artist of the Year and Artist of the Year 2019 at Stylists’ Remarkable Women Awards.


When Covid 19 hit, Anne-Marie stayed still, stayed at home and started a process of creative introspection, which took her on a whole new journey of empowerment. During this time, she also recorded her first-ever documentary entitled How To Be Anne-Marie, that aired with YouTube.


She Kicked off 2021 as a new, and winning, coach on Saturday night prime-time show, The Voice UK, and rode high in the charts following the release of her KSI and Digital Farm Animals collaboration Don’t Play, a track that spent a staggering 12 weeks inside the UK Top 10 Official Singles Chart. Her acclaimed second studio album Therapy was released in July 2021 and peaked at number two in the UK charts.

Anne-Marie said on the record’s release: “This album helped me on a journey of becoming a new, happier me and I hope it will make everyone feel good, or have a good cry, or scream a sneaky revenge tune out - a song for every mood.”

Tickets for Anne-Marie at the Eden Project on Friday July 7, 2023, cost £45 plus a £5.85 booking fee.

 

Tickets go on sale to Inside Track members at 10 am on Thursday March 30. Inside Track closes at 10 am on Monday April 3. The general ticket sale opens at 5pm on Tuesday April 4.

 

In September 2019 the Eden Project and global live events company AEG Presents announced a new partnership, Eden Sessions Ltd, to run the Eden Sessions.

 

In September 2021 Volvo Car UK announced a new three-year partnership as the Official Automotive Partner of the Eden Project and the Eden Sessions music concerts, a deal brokered by AEG Global Partnerships.

The Eden Sessions are a series of outdoor concerts which take place in the stunning surroundings of the Eden Project, a charity which aims to promote the understanding and intelligent use of the world’s natural resources.

We explore the thoughts of artists and music sharing. In today's digital age, discovering new music has become more accessible than ever due to online platforms like Spotify, SoundCloud, and download services such as Beatport. While traditional methods of exploring music, such as visiting record shops, have diminished in popularity, the process of musical exploration remains significant and enriching, especially when one encounters a standout track. For performing artists, the quest for fresh music is a continuous endeavor, often regarded as equally important as the performance itself. This raises an interesting question: is it appropriate for artists to keep the details of their music sources confidential? This topic invites further discussion from some of the South West DJs and producers on the nature of music discovery in the modern landscape.
