Jason Pierce brought an atmospheric and sublime show of Spiritualized songs to Islington's Union Chapel last night (December 9). Joined by Doggen from Spiritualized on keyboards and harmonica; the pair were accompanied by the London Community Gospel Choir and a string quartet on the chapel's stage. The ever-publically reticent Pierce sat facing away from the audience, playing acoustic guitar and reading from a song book. The nearly two hour set comprised songs throughout Pierce's career, from Spacemen 3 as well as Spiritualized albums, with several tracks from 2001's 'Let It Come Down'. Adding to the Christmas-sy atmosphere in the church, the group sang carol 'Silent Night' during the encore. Pierce has now completed recording a new Spiritualized studio album, and will hopefully be released in the Spring. Spiritualized play the Union Chapel again tonight (December 10). Last night's set list was: Sitting On Fire Lord Let It Rain On Me True Love Will Find You Cool Waves Amen Going Down Slow Soul On Fire Walking With Jesus Feel So Sad Stop Your Crying All Of My Tears Baby I'm Just A Fool Anything More/ Ladies & Gentlemen Broken Heart Think I'm In Love Lord Can You Hear Me Goodnight Goodnight Silent Night Oh Happy Day Pic credit: PA Photos
