Alicia Keys to mark anniversary of her 'Songs in A Minor' album with a special London gig
Alicia Keys is to mark the 10-year anniversary of her 'Songs in A Minor' album with a special London concert.
The 'Empire State of Mind' hitmaker is to celebrate a decade since the release of her debut LP by performing at the historic Royal Albert Hall on June 13.
The intimate show, entitled 'Piano & I: A One Night Only Event With Alicia Keys', will see the singer perform tracks from the album, as well as some of her other classic hits, accompanied just by her piano.
She told BBC Radio 1's Newsbeat: "It's incredible that I've been able to make it 10 years and here we are celebrating that.
"London is so good to me. I want to show my gratitude."
In addition to the concert, Alicia - who will also tell stories about her career during the show - is releasing deluxe and collectors' editions of 'Songs in A Minor' on June 27.
The new reworking of the album will also feature 10 tracks penned by the singer at the time she was first writing the album.
She said: "I think back to a time when I barely thought an album would be able to come out just because there were so many trials and tribulations.
"When the record did finally come out and was able to be heard and people fell in love with it, it was a testament to doing great music and not allowing people's negativity stop you from what you dream."
