Eagle Rock Entertainment is working on the October release of the stunning Peter Gabriel concert film New Blood Live In London.
Peter Gabriel performed live with the 46-piece New Blood Orchestra at Hammersmith Apollo in March. The event was shot in HD 3D as “New Blood – Live In London In 3 Dimensions.”
This visual release compliments the release of the New Blood studio album by EMI on October 11th and the 3D version is to be released in cinemas in September.
There are 22 tracks, but “Washing Of The Water” was not added to the 3D version because it wasn’t shot in 3D.
New Blood features many classic tracks including “Biko,” “Red Rain,” “Solsbury Hill,” “Don’t Give Up,” “Blood Of Eden,” “The Rhythm Of The Heat,” “Mercy Street,” “Intruder.”
The press release says:
“The repertoire mixes cover versions from his Scratch My Back album with classic tracks from across his solo career in brand new orchestral arrangements. Gabriel is a renowned live performer and his onstage charisma and instantly recognizable voice combine brilliantly with the orchestral sound palette to breath a new sense of wonder into familiar songs. As you would expect the concert is also a visual feast, with graphics, animation and imagery blending to enhance and illustrate the music.”
Peter Gabriel loves making films and the Blu-ray & DVD releases contain a Bonus Feature section, with “Blood Donors” – the story behind the project. It includes an interview with Peter Gabriel.
