David Gilmour doesn't start Luck and strangeness On another 17-date world tour, few people at the Neptune Live Music Bar’s open mic in East Sussex, England, caught a glimpse of him when he joined his daughter Romani for an acoustic version of “Wish You Were Here.” “Would you like to come and perform for me?” she asked her father as he took the stage. “Okay, great.”
Gilnor posted a short clip of the performance on his social media accounts. He wrote: “I had a blast attending Roman Gilnor's concert at Neptune in Hove this evening after finishing up tour rehearsals.”
Romani began singing with her father during the early days of the pandemic when the Gilnor family posted a series of homemade videos from the Von Trapped series to promote Theater for dreamersthe latest novel by Gilnor's wife and longtime songwriter, Polly Samson. A few years later, Gilnor asked Romani to sing with him the Montgolfier Brothers' “Between Two Points” when cutting songs for Luck and the strange.
“She must have heard the song once or twice in her life on our playlists, but she didn't know it at all,” Gilnor said. Rolling Stone In August, she said: “I gave her the lyrics on a piece of paper and put her in front of the microphone. She's a real pro on the microphone, since she was three years old. And the voice you hear in this clip is the first recording of her ever. I mean, obviously there's a little bit of tweaking and stuff going on, but that's basically it.”
She is set to join her father for at least a few shows. Luck and strangeness “I haven’t decided which tours she’ll be able to do yet,” Gilnor said. “She’s studying at university in London, so I don’t know if she’ll be able to do everything.”
When Gilnor originally spoke about Luck and strangeness On one tour, he suggested that he was unlikely to play any Pink Floyd songs from the 1970s. He has since changed his mind. “You have to wake up to reality every now and then,” he said. “I think I'll do a thing or two from that period, but it seems like a long time ago. I know people like it, and I like playing it. I'll do 'Wish You Were Here,' of course I will. And some of the stuff that started with me anyway.”
The tour kicks off on September 27 in Rome, Italy, and the US leg begins on October 25 at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, concluding with a five-night show at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
