Beth Gibbons

Beth Gibbons, known as the vocalist of Portishead, is coming to Sentrum Scene in Oslo on 13 July! She is touring with her critically acclaimed debut solo album Lives Outgrown (2024), which was nominated for the prestigious Mercury Prize, among other accolades. Gibbons produced the album with James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Depeche Mode), with Lee Harris (Talk Talk) as co-producer.

Alongside her work with Portishead, Gibbons released the album Out of Season (2002) with Rustin Man and recorded an interpretation of Górecki’s Symphony of Sorrowful Songs in 2014. In 2022, she appeared on Kendrick Lamar’s “Mother I Sober” from the album Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers. Earlier in 2026, she contributed a haunting version of The Velvet Underground’s “Sunday Morning” to the charity album HELP 2, raising money for War Child.
