Paul McCartney live: iTunes Festival

Paul McCartney performed at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London, England, on 5 July 2007.

It was the fourth show of the Secret Tour, which lasted for just six dates between June and October 2007 in promotion of the Memory Almost Full album. This concert was part of the first iTunes Festival.

This is more than a music festival, this is a unique series of performances from some of Britain’s most exciting and talented musicians that’s set to make July at the ICA hotter than ever. The sheer pace and standard of the line-up is exhilarating.

We have an amazing history of musical firsts and landmark gigs at the ICA so to present this roster of more than 60 acts over 31 nights in our 60th anniversary year seems absolutely fitting. It’s also a chance for us to say thank you to our members – and welcome new ones – as a set number of free tickets will be reserved exclusively for them each evening. Being able to announce this very special guest, Sir Paul ensures that this month stakes a unique place in musical history.

McCartney’s band was Paul ‘Wix’ Wickens (vocals, keyboards, guitar, percussion, harmonica), Brian Ray (vocals, guitar, bass), Rusty Anderson (vocals, guitar), and Abe Laboriel Jr (vocals, drums).

The recordings of ‘Coming Up’, ‘Only Mama Knows’, ‘That Was Me’, a href=”/people/paul-mccartney/songs/jet/”>’Jet’, ‘Nod Your Head’, and ‘House Of Wax’ from this show were released on the digital EP iTunes Festival on 21 August 2007.
