The Paris La Défense Arena crowd will be able to warm up to these Lenny Kravitz tracks with an opening act. So, who is it? Who has been chosen as the special guest for this huge concert? Richard Ashcroft! The artist will have the onerous task of setting the mood in the Hauts-de-Seine venue before the American singer and musician takes to the stage.

Born in 1971 in Wigan, Great Britain, Richard Ashcroft is best known as the lead singer of The Verve. Formed in 1989, The Verve released four albums between 1993 and 2008. The best-known is undoubtedly"Urban Hymns". Released in 1997, The Verve's third album features four timeless singles: " The Drugs Don't Work ", " Sonnet ", " Lucky Man " and the hit " Bitter Sweet Symphony ".

In 2000, Richard Ashcroft embarked on a solo career, releasing"Alone With Everybody", followed by"Human Conditions" in 2002 and"Keys To The World" in 2006. His latest solo opus,"Natural Rebel", was released in October 2018.

Although Richard Ashcroft has become much more discreet in recent years, the English artist remains a benchmark for many. The group Oasis has even chosen him to support its many concerts scheduled for 2025 in Great Britain and Ireland.

Just before, Richard Ashcroft will be the special guest at Lenny Kravitz's Paris concert! We can imagine that the artist will be delighted to perform some of The Verve's greatest hits, as well as songs from his various solo albums.
