Imogen Heap, Hide and Seek (live), San Francisco, CA, June 8, 2019

Imogen Heap plays the song "Hide and Seek" live in concert at The Masonic in San Francisco, CA on June 8, 2019. The song originally appeared on her 2005 solo album Speak For Yourself. Heap also contributed a version of the song, called "Edge of the Forest," to the soundtrack for the play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, whose entire score she composed. Joining Heap onstage were Zoe Keating (cello), Emma Houston (keytar), Tim Keiper (drums), and Steve Jones (guitar). Heap performs with Mi.Mu musical gloves, which allow her to manipulate/loop her voice and musical samples with movements of her hands. She said this about them: "They basically enable me to reach inside that computer, and have access to all the software that I love. All of the augmentation of my voice. Or maybe I want to bring in some samples. Or add in a delay. Or reverse my voice, or whatever I want to do. So all of the vocal effects you're hearing tonight are done live." Hide and Seek lyrics: Where are we? What the hell is going on? The dust has only just begun to fall Crop circles in the carpet, sinking, feeling Spin me 'round again and rub my eyes This can't be happening When busy streets amass with people Would stop to hold their heads heavy Hide and seek Trains and sewing machines All those years They were here first Oily marks appear on walls Where pleasure moments hung before The takeover, the sweeping insensitivity Of this still life Hide and seek Trains and sewing machines Oh, you won't catch me around here Blood and tears They were here first Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, that you only meant well? Well, of course you did Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, that it's all for the best? Of course it is Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, that it's just what we need And you decided this? Mmm, whatcha say? Mmm, what did you say? Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs Speak no feeling, no, I don't believe you You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth Hide and seek Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs Speak, no feeling, no, I don't believe you Hide and seek You don't care a bit, you don't care a, you don't care a bit Hide and seek You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit Hide and seek You don't care a bit, you don't care a bit, you don't care a bit Written by Imogen Jennifer Heap Mycelia North American and European Tour Dates (with some Frou Frou songs performed with Guy Sigsworth): April 28 � Miami, FL @ Fillmore Miami Beach May 3-4 � Washington DC @ Lincoln Theatre May 7-8 �New York, NY @ Town Hall Theatre May 14 � Chicago, IL @ The Vic Theatre May 16-17 � Toronto, Ontario @ Queen Elizabeth Theatre May 24 � Boston, MA @ Emerson Colonial Theatre June 1 � Austin, TX @ ACL Live at the Moody Theater June 5 � Seattle, WA @ The Moore Theatre June 8 � San Francisco, CA @ The Masonic Auditorium June 13 � Los Angeles, CA @ The Greek Theatre Nov. 2 � Berlin, Germany @ Passionskirche Nov. 4 � Amsterdam, Netherlands @ De Meervaart Nov. 5 � Paris, France @ L'Alhambra Nov. 7 � Dublin, Ireland @ Vicar Street Nov. 10 � Glasgow, Scotland @ SWG3 Galvanizers Yard Nov. 11 � Gateshead, England @ The Sage Nov. 12 � Manchester, England @ Bridgewater Hall Nov. 15 � London, England @ The Roundhouse
