Lianne La Havas, Of Monsters and Men, Goldfrapp, and Basement Jaxx are just some of the live acts dropping into the central courtyard of Somerset House for this year's Summer Series. It's an idyllic, intimate, calming, escapist location for a concert on a summer's evening and as a breeze drifts in off the Thames you'll forget the city bustle outside and tune into some great music, surrounded by one of eighteenth century London's most spectacular buildings. South Londoner Alex Clare kicks the Summer Series off on Thursday 11th July while electronic dance music duo Felix Buxton and Simon Ratcliffe, aka Basement Jaxx (who also hail from south London), play the closing party on Sunday 21st July 2013. For detailed information on this year's festival go to our Somerset House Summer Series feature.
About Somerset House
Somerset House, once the site of a spectacular Tudor palace, now includes a magnificent 18th century art gallery housing celebrated collections belonging to the Courtauld Institute Gallery, as well as the Embankment Galleries (which replaced the Hermitage Rooms and The Gilbert Collection - the latter re-opened at the Victoria and Albert Museum in June 2009).
