Prince and 3RDEYEGIRL performed a 60 minute surprise session at Camden's Electric Ballroom last night (4 February) to a few hundred fans who had been tipped off just an hour beforehand. Watch a clip from the performance below.
After announcing that he will be performing a series of London shows this year, details of which would be revealed at a press conference held at singer Lianne LaHavas's flat, the hype surrounding Prince's tour has been enormous.
Last night, the conference finally took place, but still no dates were confirmed. Instead, Prince & 3RDEYEGIRL played two tracks from the forthcoming PLECTRUMELECTRUM album before heading to the Electric Ballroom.
