Emeli Sande plays exclusive acoustic gig

Last night BRIT Award winning singer Emeli Sande performed an intimate Priceless Gig for MasterCard at the St James Theatre in London.

Emeli performed an acoustic set, which included her biggest hits 'Next to Me' and 'Heaven', for an intimate audience of 60 people who won the free tickets by registering on pricelesslondon.co.uk. Sande also gave her fans priceless insights into the inspiration behind her songs as well as answering some of the audience's very own questions.

This acoustic performance was one of MasterCard's series of Priceless Gigs, which gives fans the opportunity to see their favourite stars perform for free, up close and personal in an exclusive setting.

Emeli commented: "Playing the big arenas is always an incredible experience, but I love playing these intimate gigs too. This Priceless Gig allowed me to get so much closer to the fans and I loved being able to chat to them directly. It was unlike any other show I've done before."

Anyone who's missed the chance to see Emeli this time round can sign up to pricelesslondon.co.uk to be the first to hear about the opportunity to meet her at one of her hand-picked gigs this summer. They will also be able to hear when the ballots open for further Priceless Gigs with Rita Ora, Conor Maynard and Delilah.

The gigs and the opportunity to meet Emeli are all part of MasterCard's Priceless London programme, which offers all MasterCard cardholders that register on pricelesslondon.co.uk exclusive experiences and privileged access to the very best of the capital's music, theatres, museums, restaurants, retail, sport and attractions.
