Description: | â??The Art Of Losingâ?? is the second album from Welsh multi-instrumentalist The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies), following up on her critically acclaimed debut album, â??Confessions of A Romance Novelistâ??, which was named amongst the Guardian criticsâ?? Albums of the Year, won HMVâ??s Welsh Album of the Year, Best Newcomer at the PROG awards, & a nomination for the Welsh Music Prize.
Written & produced by Davies, the new album features guest vocal performances from James Dean Bradfield (Manic Street Preachers) & drums from Sterling Campbell (David Bowie, Duran Duran) along with the mixing talents of Dave Eringa (Manics, Wilko Johnson) & grammy-award winner Mario McNulty (David Bowie, Prince, Laurie Anderson).
â??The Art Of Losingâ?? ambitiously navigates the topic of loss in all its forms & was written & recorded during an unfeasibly busy few years as Davies found solace & purpose in a range of projects whilst navigating her griefs. Most recently this came via the release of her collaborative album â??In Memory of My Feelingsâ?? with Bernard Butler (on Pete Paphidesâ?? label â??Needle Mythologyâ??), duetting with the Manic Street Preachers on â??Resistance Is Futileâ??, & being personally invited by The Cureâ??s Robert Smith to perform at his Meltdown Festival. She also brought a new generation of ears to legendary Scottish rock band Simple Minds, where she spent much of the last five years appearing on the â??Big Musicâ?? (2015) & â??Walk Between Worldsâ?? (2018) albums. - Japanese pressing features bonus material. Kscope. 2022. |
