Last month, This Pretenders frontwoman released ‘Standing In The Doorway: Chrissie Hynde Sings Bob Dylan’
Hynde said in a statement…..
“A few weeks into lockdown last year, [Pretenders bandmate James Walbourne] sent me the new Dylan track ‘Murder Most Foul’. Listening to that song completely changed everything for me. I was lifted out of this morose mood that I’d been in,”.
She will take over London’s Royal Opera House on July 29 and 30, followed by four nights at Edinburgh’s Queen’s Hall between August 22 and 25.
Tickets for the London and Edinburgh shows will be available from 25th June. The shows will be socially distanced and fully compliant with up-to-date government Covid safety guidelines.
Standing in the Doorway: Chrissie Hynde sings Bob Dylan was recorded in lockdown by Chrissie and her bandmate James Welbourne.
