Welsh songstress Cate Le Bon will release her new album on April 30. It's called CYRK and will come out through OVNI (Turnstile).
Here is the tracklisting:
• Falcon Eyed
• Puts Me To Work
• Cyrk
• Julia
• Greta
• Fold The Cloth
• The Man I Wanted
• Through The Mill
• Ploughing Out Part 1
• Ploughing Out Part 2
Cate Le Bon had this to say about the album:
““How would I describe the album? Cut a remote island in two and place one half to your ear…””
I have no idea what that means either. What would a remote island sound like from the inside, especially when it has been halved. Answers on a postcard, I guess. There is more. She elaborates...
““CYRK is like a time travel travelogue which continually returns the sea. I mostly write about the sea, matters of the heart and animals – or a mish-mash of all three.””
Still none the wiser? You'll just have to get the album then. Here's a video for 'Fold The Cloth', which surfaced a couple of months ago.
