CAT POWER

Recent motherhood, bankruptcy, break-ups and hospitalisations all colours these spooked, sparse and sensuous songs. Capable of turning personal experience into unhinged and terrifying folk tales, Power also has a sharp eye on wider experience on Black and In Your Face. Touring pal Lana Del Rey turns up to provide backing vocals on one song but Power’s unflinching individuality and deep connection to folk, blues and saloon bar singers of ages past resonate strongly throughout.
