8:15pm LOUISE LATHAM


Gifted singer-songwriter Louise Latham's evocative debut album Reclaimed will be performed at Cafe Jazz. For every waking hour while recording the album, Louise was consumed by the project. Combined with heartfelt production of Arno Guveau, the songs exert an intimate pull on the senses and resonate with an elemental force. Guveau's cinematic arrangements accentuate the dark romantic heart of Latham's writing. Guveau, who has worked with Manfred Mann and former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Weston, built a studio in his Dutch flat specifically to record Reclaimed creating "an atmosphere with lamps and rugs, an artistic bohemian feel". The album sets Louise up as a new voice in the British folk tradition, while drawing influence from her heroes. When she talks about touchstones, she mentions the simplicity and economy of Tracy Chapman's compositions, the big quiet of Tori Amos's Boys For Pele album, and the ambitious scope of Sarah McLachlan's Fumbling Towards Ecstasy.

ADMISSION: £7.00 / £6.00
