So about last night (3rd March)... Rudimental packed out London's O2 Arena as part of their sold-out UK tour and IT. WENT. OFF. 

Our Brand New For 2016 winner Anne-Marie and Gorgon City stepped up their game on supporting duties kicking off the night by getting the tens of thousands of Rudi-fans hyped up for the main event.

Since the foursome first broke through with their No.1 smash 'Feel The Love' they've been Mercury Prize nominated, gone onto win BRIT and MOBO Awards and had two No.1 albums.

This homecoming gig was a seminal milestone in that journey, summed up by Locksmith who greeted the arena stating, "I didn't have a job four years ago," clearly ecstatic at the meteoric rise they've seen.

And there's a reason - they're INCREDIBLE live.

With a stage set reminiscent of their urban London upbringing, the foursome (minus an absent Amir sadly) are complimented by an insanely talented band and vocalists who bring such hits, originally sung by the likes of John Newman, Emeli Sande and more, to life as capably as their chart-smashing predecessors. 

Notable mid-set highlights included a darkly dramatic 'Bloodstream' and Will Heard going for it on 'I Will For Love' while the down tempo tracks like 'Free' and 'Lay It All On Me' provided much needed brow-mopping time.

Anne-Marie returned to the stage nailing it on both the chilled 'Rumour Mill' and also the frenetic 'Love Ain't Just A Word', before the night was topped off with the rousing 'Feel The Love' and 'Waiting All Night'.

View the lyrics
It's on a rumour mill, the word is on the street, I
I don't know how to feel about what you say to me, I
Cause the body builds, they won't give me no release, I
Had somebody, cheap thrill, no chance of a remedy, no

The bad things be spreading round
No, no, let it go, just turn it down
Don't be a fool, don't be a clown
Can't tell me, won't tell me nothin' anyhow
Bad things be spreading round
No, no, let it go, just turn it down
Either way I'm coming round
Can't tell me, won't turn me down

I, I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say, say, say, say, yeah

It's on a rumour mill, word is on the street, I
I love you so, the feeling's bitter sweet, I
How do you like me now? I'm at the crossroad you can't reach, I
Don't test me now, cause it's a test that you can't teach

Bad things be spreading round
No, no, let it go, just turn it down
Won't be a fool, won't be a clown
Can't tell me, won't tell me nothin' anyhow
Bad things be spreading round
No, no, let it go, just turn it down
Either way I'm coming round
Can't tell me, won't turn me down

I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say, say, say, say, yeah
I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say, say, say, say, yeah

Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
It's on a rumour mill
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
It's on a rumour mill
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
It's on a rumour mill
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
It's on a rumour mill
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how
Nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, nothin' anyhow, how

I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say
I don't even care about what they say, say, say, say, yeah
I don't even care about what they say
I don't give a damn what they say about me
Nothin' anyhow, how, how, how
