Amy Winehouse’s father Mitch Winehouse has confirmed that there is a hologram tour in the works. The shows are set to kick off in 2019. They will feature a live band accompanying vocals from original Winehouse recordings. All proceeds will reportedly benefit the Amy Winehouse Foundation.
In a statement released, Mitch Winehouse has said “This is a dream for us. To see her perform again is something special that really can’t be put into words. Our daughter’s music touched the lives of millions of people and it means everything that her legacy will continue in this innovative and groundbreaking way.”
Brian Becker, the Chief Executive of BASE Hologram has detailed the tour, stating “This tour will tap into that devotion and remind people of her amazing voice and all of her contributions to the world of music. In addition, we are proud to be a part of contributing to the Amy Winehouse Foundation and Amy’s legacy of commitment to others in need.”
The Amy Winehouse Foundation works to prevent the effects of drug and alcohol misuse on young people. It provides support and information to vulnerable and disadvantaged young people.
