There can’t be many winners of the Mercury Music Prize who could play London’s Royal Opera House and finish the show with the entire audience on their feet shouting Bravo! as if the curtains had just come down on La Boheme.
To a low hum and dance beats she flaps her extended limbs with increasing urgency her desperate attempt to take flight marking the unsettling start of Swanlights a much-anticipated gig by a truly unconventional star Antony Hegarty.
Johanna Constantine whose artwork is featured on the headliners’ new album The Crying Light glides menacingly onto the stage draped in a gauze fabric and covered in what looks like blood.
Maybe someone gasped but only that epithet lingered on the air, slicing apart the crystalline reverie the band had spent half the show creating, its mundane harshness bursting the magical balloon of song in which we all had floated.
