LateRooms.com - See Rising Star James Blake in Paris

    PARIS, FRANCE, April 05, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Electronic music star James Blake is set to perform at Paris venue La Maroquinerie on Monday April 25th.

The gig should give French fans a chance to see what all the fuss is about, as Blake has been widely hailed as one of British dance music's brightest young hopes since releasing a critically acclaimed series of EPs last year.

After finishing as runner-up in the BBC's influential Sound of 2011 poll, Blake boosted his profile even further with his self-titled debut LP, which was released on February 7th.

The 22-year-old from north London has also kept critics busy by developing a sound that is notoriously difficult to categorise - it has variously been described as post-dubstep, electro-soul and UK bass music.

Although Blake's early material was largely instrumental or based on manipulated vocal samples, many of the songs on his album - including single Limit to Your Love - rely on the artist's own voice and piano playing.

Tickets to see him perform in Paris are priced at EUR22 (GBP19.40). Doors will open at 19:30 local time.

Fans hoping to attend the gig can browse a host of Paris hotels at LateRooms.com, which recommends the Hotel Bastille Paris.
