Kate Bush has thanked all those who attended her London residency which concluded at the start of this month after 22 shows were performed at the Eventim Hammersmith Apollo to around 80,000 fans.
“Now all the shows are over, it’s pretty difficult to explain how I feel about it all,” she has said in a post on her official website. “It was quite a surreal journey that kept its level of intensity right from the early stages to the end of the very last show. It was also such great fun.”
“It was one of the most extraordinary experiences of my life. I loved the whole process. Particularly putting the band, the Chorus and the team together and watching it all evolve. It really was the ultimate combination of talent and artists, both from the music business and the theatre world. I never expected everyone in the team to be so lovely and we all grew very close. We became a family and I really miss them all terribly.”
The shows marked Bush’s first run of UK dates since 1979 and helped eight studio albums re-enter the Top 40.
