The Roundhouse's Back to Black night on 21 October is down to a waiting list. BBC Two will show it in late October, and Radio 2 airs it on 26 October.

Amy Winehouse’s closest collaborators will play Back to Black in full at the Roundhouse on Wednesday 21 October, twenty years after the album came out. If you did not get a ticket, you can still see it. The Roundhouse says the concert is being filmed for BBC Two, and BBC Radio 2 will broadcast it on Monday 26 October, 7pm to 9pm, in Jo Whiley’s show. (Roundhouse)

The tickets have gone. General sale opened at 10am on Thursday 1 October, and the venue’s booking page now offers only a waiting list.

Who is on stage

The album’s producers, Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi, lead the night. They are joined by Amy’s long-term musical director Dale Davis, producers Paul O’Duffy and p*nut, and Darcus Beese OBE. The Amy Winehouse Band plays the record from start to finish.

The producers picked the guest singers themselves:

  • Baby Rose
  • Corinne Bailey Rae
  • FLO
  • Jessie Reyez
  • Jorja Smith
  • Lianne La Havas
  • Nia Smith
  • Sasha Keable
  • Skye Newman
  • Yebba

“I’m honoured to be asked to come celebrate Amy alongside Salaam and some amazing artists worthy of singing her songs,” Mark Ronson said. “Doing justice to the legacy of Back to Black is the order of the night.”

Salaam Remi said: “Funny how time flies! I can’t believe it’s been 20 years already. I’m excited to see what these ladies bring to their versions of these songs we know and love.”

The Roundhouse describes the album as having won five Grammy Awards and sold well over 25 million copies worldwide.
