As she heads off on her world tour, our NOTION 89 cover star Tems kicked things off at Hammersmith's Eventim Apollo last week.
To celebrate the release of her highly anticipated debut album Born In The Wild, our cover star Tems has started her world tour with a bang. Taking to the stage in London on 11th and 12th of June, the Nigerian singer, songwriter and record producer lit up the room with her vibrant fusion of alternative R&B and Neo soul.
Opening with the iconic track ‘Higher’ from her debut EP For Broken Ears, Tems took her fans on an evocative journey through her diverse discography, playing some cult classics and new must-know tracks, as well as a cover or two thrown in. An absolute one-of-a-kind experience, the show captured Tems’ infectious personality and captivating presence effortlessly, promising an unmissable tour ahead.
