About Suede with Charles Hazlewood and Paraorchestra

Curated as part of a four-night Southbank Centre takeover to celebrate their new album Antidepressants released Friday 5 September 2025, this show will be Suede’s first-ever full orchestral headline show. 

An eighteen-strong ensemble of Paraorchestra players led by Charles Hazlewood will perform alongside the band with orchestration by Charlotte Harding and Liam Taylor-West. 

This very special performance follows Paraorchestra and Suede lead singer Brett Anderson's 2024 album Death Songbook, released via BMG's World Circuit label.
