Rebecca Ferguson « 15 Years Stripped »

Rebecca Ferguson brings 15 Years Stripped to The Glasshouse – International Centre for Music in Gateshead on June 4, 2026. The Liverpool-born singer and songwriter, revealed in 2010, has built a body of work where soul-pop croises with R&B, blues and gospel, carried by a warm lower register and uncluttered melodies. This tour revisits her catalogue in a pared-back setup that puts the writing and the voice at the centre.

From Heaven and Freedom through Superwoman to Heaven Part II, her songs are recast in intimate arrangements, with echoes of her Lady Sings the Blues project and collaborations gathered along the way. Between ballads and mid-tempos, she stays close to contemporary soul’s roots more than big pop gestures, letting harmonies breathe and lyrics lead.

Fifteen years on, Ferguson draws a clear line through her story: early singles, later cuts and recent material heard in a new light. It’s a live portrait where bluesy shades, gospel touches and a jazz-tinged sense of space reveal the backbone of her songwriting, in a room made for listening.
