Lous New Album & Tour info . . . Options

[Dash]

Hi All
I just had an email about Lous' new album & tour dates. . .


Lou’s 3rd solo album One Good Thing was released in the UK and Europe on March 29th 2010 and will be released in the USA on April 20 2010. The album is the most complete and lucid body of solo work Lou has ever written, and is already picking up incredible press reviews...

SOME PRESS QUOTES ABOUT THE ALBUM :-

‘Its melancholy intensity evokes the haunted chill of Nico as much as the warm vertigo of Nick Drave.’ **** Uncut

‘Her third offering continues the impeccable standard set by the Mercury Prize-nominated Beloved One and the follow-up Bloom... The Mood is melancholy, the settings are sparse and Lou’s voice holds seductive, dreamlike qualities that draw you irresistibly into her world.’ - The Sun

‘Sombre, spectral and decidedly Nick Drake-ish, her third [album] employs a spare interplay between finger-picked guitars and strings as a backdrop to hard-won reflections on life, love and loss’ - Independent on Sunday

‘The panoramic approach to tracks such as the excellent “Janey”, replete with densely layered strings, suggests a baroque-pop masterpiece’ - Observer

‘The sparse beauty of Lou Rhodes voice is absolutely charming,’ - Clash

‘Rhodes picks up where her 2007 album, Bloom, left off, using guitar and strings elegantly but sparingly, to underscore excerpts from her diary of the past three years’ - Guardian
