Welsh producer and multi-instrumentalist The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies) returns, fresh from appearing with Manic Street Preachers.
Her second album, The Art of Losing, successfully transformed wall-to-wall critical plaudits into a Top 10 position in the UK physical charts, as well as the coveted #1 spot on iTunes. It was also named an album of the year by titles including The Sunday Times and The Line of Best Fit.
Versions, her recent collection of imaginative re-workings of indie anthems, was hailed as ‘spine tingling’ by BBC 6 Music’s Chris Hawkins.
She has been twice nominated for the Welsh Music Prize and has previously collaborated with Bernard Butler and Simple Minds.
Her trademark literate baroque songwriting mixes epic melancholic guitar anthems with ‘swaggering synth-pop’ (Uncut) and ‘shining alt-pop from the artisan of darkness’ (Record Collector), and these new shows will see her preview music from her forthcoming studio album with a full live band.
