Long time readers will have seen some of my posts on musician Jacob Collier.
He is a grammy-winning musical genius that has won the respect of giants like Quincy Jones, Hans Zimmer, and Herbie Hancock.
Earlier this week I attended one of his concerts for the first time. It was at London’s O2 arena and it didn’t disappoint. Collier breaks all the traditional rules of music and somehow makes even the most odd chords sound beautiful in his arrangements.
A standout moment was when Chris Martin from Coldplay emerged and the pair sung the song ‘Fix You’. Collier has made it his thing to turn his whole audience into a choir, so 15,000 of us got to accompany the duo as they sung. Here is a great video of the moment.
If you ever get the chance to see Jacob Collier live, I couldn’t recommend it more!
