Lifesize Amy Winehouse statue arrives Camden 14 September!

As a HUGE Amy Winehouse fan I was delighted to hear that a statue of the singer is to be erected in Camden, her own patch of our fair capital.

Expected to arrive on what would have been Amy's 31st birthday on 14 September, the life sized bronze by sculptor Scott Eaton, will make Camden a must-visit location for music fans everywhere.

Interestingly, Scott Eaton's website says there are currently no public images of the statue's final design. Images produced to date were apparently for planning permission only and no-one knows the precise design or location of the finished bronze!  



Hard to believe it's already three years since Amy died on 23 July 2011 aged just 27. Her multi award winning album, Back to Black, with one of the best photos of Amy ever taken (by Mischa Richter) on the cover, remains my favourite album, like, for EVER!
