Joy Crookes<\/strong> drops her new album, Juniper, two weeks from today, and she will be celebrating by performing a special one-off show at the Tate Modern a week after its release<\/strong>. She will play the South Tanks in the Blavatnik Building at the London gallery on September 26<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The singer-songwriter will perform songs from Juniper and will fill the area around the stage with photographs and outfits that have inspired her along the way to creating this record.<\/p>\n

Themes of \u2018migration, memory, and place\u2019 on Juniper are also partly inspired by Joy Crookes\u2019 connection to artist Do Ho Suh<\/strong>, who has had an exhibition running at the Tate this summer<\/a>. The Genesis Exhibition by Do Ho Suh runs until October 26<\/strong>, so you could even catch it<\/a> on the same day as Crookes\u2019 performance ahead of seeing the Lates show.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the news, Joy Crookes said: \u201cI feel honoured to be performing at the Tate Modern Late this September. Tate has always been a vital place for me growing up in London \u2013 it has the ability to draw out so many emotions in me, and in all Londoners. My songwriting wouldn\u2019t be what it is, if I didn\u2019t explore the theme of place.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a huge fan of Do Ho Suh, to be taking part in this Late in the context of his exhibition is a massive privilege. The themes of home and identity cross over so much in our creative work and I\u2019m excited to share these with audiences for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Do Ho Suh<\/strong> himself will also be appearing as part of the Tate Modern Lates<\/strong> lineup on the same day, giving a talk on his reflections of his work with Nabila Abdel Nabi, Senior Curator of International Art at the gallery. This will then be followed by a screening of short films by collaborators who worked with Do Ho Suh on his Bridge Project, which includes filmmaker Hugh Brody, and activist Doreen Nutaaq Simmonds.<\/p>\n
