British singer RAYE unveiled her hotly anticipated second album, This Music May Contain Hope, last week, further expanding her riveting blend of jazz, orchestral pop, and R&B. She’s now in the midst of a sold-out North American tour in support of the release.
Dubbed “This Tour May Contain New Music,” the run kicked off in Sacramento on May 31 before landing in Seattle at the expansive WAMU Theater on Friday night. Backed by a 15-piece band—including string and brass quartets—RAYE delivered a 20-song set drawing heavily from the new album, alongside highlights from My 21st Century Blues and a rendition of “Fly Me to the Moon.”
FLOOD photographer Christian Sarkine was on hand in the Emerald City to document the performance. Check out highlights from the show below, and find remaining US tour dates here.
