As the U.K. tentatively comes out of lockdown and the entertainment industry slowly gets back on its feet, this week pop princess Anne-Marie teamed up with Capital FM to launch the stations summer concert series Capital Up Close with Barclaycard.
Taking to the stage at London’s Under the Bridge, the Birthday singer performed an electric set, made up of some of her biggest hits, exclusively for Capital listeners and Barclaycard customers.

Commenting on the night, Anne-Marie said: “I’ve been so incredibly excited to get back on stage and perform at ‘Capital Up Close with Barclaycard’. To perform in front of an actual audience in person after such a long time was a really special moment, and I loved seeing everyone!”
DJ Roman Kemp added: “We’ve all missed live music so much and it’s amazing to be welcoming our listeners back to a live show once again. Anne-Marie is an amazing performer and our listeners love her – the gig was unreal!”
