With no change over to speak about the second act of the night was on stage before we knew it and sitting behind her keyboards and accompanied by a guitarist.
Imelda May possibly may not be a household name, but for those who have seen her perform live, they will know all about her star quality which was evident in abundance on Tuesday night at the Royal Concert Hall.
Lee Campbell reports on Imelda May's recent set at the Isle of Wight Festival.
Imelda May took to the main stage at the Isle of Wight Festival on a sunny Sunday afternoon.
On the last night of her UK tour Imelda May walked onstage to rapturous applause for her first headline gig at the Royal Albert Hall and performed a stunning stripped back rendition of Call Me. This immediately demonstrated both her confidence and her clear and strong vocals.
May is preceded by her 7 piece band (three guitarists with slicked back hair, a saxophonist, trumpeter/percussionist, a drummer and keyboardist) to the opening strains of The Velvet Underground's Venus in Furs.
