James Blake’s Wide-Ranging Livestream Performance

The English singer/songwriter debuted a new track and covered classics from Ray Charles and Joy Division.

Following his first Instagram TV livestream a couple weeks back, James Blake hosted a second home performance earlier this week. Lasting about an hour, Blake performed a few older tracks like “Retrograde” and “Life Round Here,” his BeyoncĂ© collaboration “Forward” from Lemonade, and a handful of songs from his 2019 album Assume Form. Towards the end, Blake played a brand new song titled “Say What You Will,” making way for fans to anticipate new music.
