SITTING alone in an empty hotel lobby, as still and noble as a Roman statue, is Antony Hegarty. At first I walk right past him, which seems ridiculous considering he is the only person in the room. And also he's Antony Hegarty. A one-off talent, a transgender torch singer who warbles like Nina Simone, a gentle giant from Chichester with a shock of black hair and a smock who Lou Reed has described as an "angel".
Today, the angel has landed in east London but so very softly, so very inconspicuously that I almost miss him.
