portion of each ticket sold will be donated to Hospitality Action,
the UK hospitality industry's benevolent charity, and The

In addition to music performances, the livestream will make use
of a range of commercial and engagement tools available through
eMusic Live. This will include exclusive merchandise, fan live chat
and VIP experiences such as a personalised meet-and-greet with
Alfie Boe.
Alfie Boe OBE, a veteran of the London stage and Broadway,
boasts more than a million album sales and multiple sell-out tours,
performing at both the Royal Festival Hall and the Royal Albert
Hall. He shared a Tony Award for La bohème in 2003 and is also
known for his lead performances as Jean Valjean in the musical Les
Misérables and as J.M. Barrie in Finding Neverland.
Paul Langworthy, CEO of 7digital, said: "It's a real thrill for
eMusic Live to be hosting Alfie Boe and a star-studded line-up for
a night of unmissable musical entertainment, streamed exclusively
to audiences worldwide from the iconic Savoy Hotel. With eMusic
Live's advanced monetisation tools, Alfie will be able to engage
remotely with fans in new and exciting ways and generate maximum
revenue for two very worthy causes.
"The magic of eMusic Live is that it creates immersive
livestreams for artists seeking new ways to monetise performances
and engage with global audiences. Since its launch, the platform
has already hosted more than 50 livestreamed performances, and we
are set to unveil a swathe of exciting shows in the weeks and
months to come. We expect this to increase further following our
livestream event with Alfie Boe which will act as a showcase for
eMusic Live in the UK. We look forward to updating the market on
the success of eMusic Live and its contribution to the growth of
7digital."
Alfie Boe commented: "I cannot tell you how exciting it is for
me to perform at the legendary Savoy Hotel with my friends. I
wanted to come together in front of our fans who can't be in the
room with us yet in order to help lift people's moods and share
memories of celebrated musicians who have set foot in the Savoy
Hotel and have had an influence on my life - from rock band Queen
to world-renowned Frank Sinatra, David Bowie, and Judy Garland. The
eMusic Live platform has created a new way for us to take the
virtual stage to our fans, enjoy some songs, raise a glass or two
from home, and I hope people enjoy it!"
