XM Satellite Radio will air the US show Sting performed earlier this month in New York. The show will air on Monday, October 16. Taped before a live audience of friends and fans at XM’s New York studios in Jazz @ Lincoln Center on 9 October, Sting’s XM performance features works from the new album, and in addition a few songs not traditionally performed on the lute: his 1993 hit “Fields of Gold,” legendary bluesman Robert Johnson’s “Hell Hound on My Trail,” and The Police’s “Message in a Bottle.”
Sting is accompanied by the 12-person choir “Tapestry” and Sarajevo-born lutenist Edin Karamazov.
