Above & Beyond acoustic set in Hot Air Balloon


Above & Beyond ditched their studio equipment and performed an acoustic set in a hot air balloon with Virgin Balloon Flights, to celebrate the balloon-themed artwork of their latest Anjunabeats compilation. Setting off from Biggleswade in Bedfordshire, Tony, Jono, and Paavo, were joined by vocalist Zoe Johnston. The trio played 3 tracks (Can’t Sleep, Good For Me, and No One On Earth) to an intimate audience which included Radio 1s Pete Tong, who was covering the event for the BBC, and a competition winner and friend who had won places on the trip. The celebratory champagne flowed after the memorable hour-long flight, piloted by Virgin Balloon Flights Swedish chief pilot Kenneth Karlstrom. Virgin Balloon Flights is the UKs leading ballooning company offering champagne balloon flights from 100+ UK launch sites. www.virginballoonflights.co.uk
