Idiot Prayer: Nick Cave Alone at Alexandra Palace is a concert film and live album by Australian musician Nick Cave. It was streamed globally to ticket holders online on 23 July 2020. The film features Cave performing solo on piano at Alexandra Palace in London. Although initially intended to be a one-time-only event, Idiot Prayer was released in extended form in cinemas on 5 November 2020 and as a live album on 20 November 2020.
The performance was recorded during the pandemic, and it involved significant precautions against the spread of COVID-19. The film evolved from Cave’s 2019 solo Conversations tour, during which he performed stripped-down versions of his songs on piano with more focus on the lyrics Idiot Prayer serves as the final film in a trilogy, along with 20,000 Days on Earth (2014) and One More Time with Feeling (2016), and was described by Cave as “its luminous and heartfelt climax”. The concert features performances of songs from across the Bad Seeds discography, as well as two songs from Grinderman and a new song entitled “Euthanasia”.
