ADELE PERFORMING AT KLPAC





ADELE'S BAND IS MADE OF TALENTED MALAYSIANS



A SHOW WORTH EVERY SEN AND YOUR 1.5 HOURS!
**************************************

“HELLO” MALAYSIA! RUMOUR HAS IT ADELE – HER LIFE AND SONGS ASIA PREMIERE  
Hailing from a working class family from Tottenham, Adele Adkins had a big voice and even larger dreams. While there was no musical lineage in her family, a passion for singing and music led her to pursue her studies in the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology, where it was said she was a classmate of her peers, Jessie J and Leona Lewis. 

After she posted a demo from a class project on her Myspace account, little did she dreamed that her life would change forever. A record deal from XL Recordings launched her into stardom as she is about to enter her twenties with the album, 19, pioneered by her debut single, Chasing Pavements. 


Since then, she has released hits after hits from a mega-platinum catalogue of songs such as Someone Like You, Rolling in the Deep and the award- winning Skyfall.  


Inspired by Adele’s meteoric rise to fame and how her life has shaped her music and songs, Rumour Has It is an international production that celebrates this British musical sensation’s journey from a working class girl from Tottenham to a first-class musical diva. 


Debuting at Brisbane in 2013, Rumour Has It Adele has toured more than a dozen of major cities in Australia, sweeping 3 international awards in its wake. 


This international performance has earned critical reviews as a whole for its humour, musical prowess and the thoughtful and poignant celebration of a woman who is not afraid to expose her deepest emotions to the world.  


Adele’s appeal to the masses transcends her innate musical talents, as those who have seen live concerts can attest to—especially at her sold-out show at the Royal Albert Hall. She is a masterful storyteller—witty, expressive and above all, open to bare her heart and soul to connect with her audience. 


Unabashed to admit that a ‘rubbish relationship’ she suffered through was the inspiration behind her successful sophomore album 21, Adele’s life story is the real inspiration behind Rumour Has It Adele- Her Life And Songs.  


Arriving in Malaysia and in South East Asia for the first time, Rumour Has It Adele brings together a stellar production team and top notch band musicians for an unforgettable contemporary international show showcasing Adele’s latest and greatest hits from 21st to 25th September in KLPAC. 

Leading the talented crew is its heroine Naomi Price—whose performance as Adele has garnered her praise and critical acclaim. So go on and start practising your vocal chords in front of the mirror or in the shower to sing along with Adele’s chart-topping hits.  


Adele Adkins—The Story Everyone on this planet have heard of Adele Adkins one way or another; her music is always playing on loop in music channels and radio airwaves on a regular basis. At the age of 19, she has electrified the world with her soulful track, Chasing Pavements, that talk about the cyclical nature of relationships through her own trials and tribulations with a boy she was seeing. 


Her turbulent personal life would both be the fodder and inspiration behind her international success as she penned a string of heart- breaking songs that chronicles her feelings about love and loss.  


With 65 million fans and counting, Adele expanded her fan base further when she released her sophomore album, 21, where she showcased her incredible vocal prowess through belting out songs such as Turning Tables and Set Fire to the Rain. 


She won Grammy Awards in recognition of her vocal work and appeal as a female musician, as well as an Academy Award for Original Song through her work for Skyfall as featured in the eponymous 2012 instalment of the famous James Bond series. 


Having achieved stability in life recently through a new love and the birth of her son, Adele returned to the spotlight with her new album 25, after which its lead single’s music video Hello broke records in YouTube—signalling that the power of Adele has never waned in the passing of time.
