The aim, to create an authentic live experience with all of the hits, as well as some of the less well known of Kate’s songs - some of which have never actually been heard played live before. ‘Running Up That Hill’, ‘Wuthering Heights’, ‘Hounds of Love,’ ‘Babooshka’, ‘This Woman’s Work’, ‘Wow’… Cloudbusting perform all the chart hits you’d expect to hear - so those who missed out on her live shows in 1979 and indeed 2014, will love the UK’s longest running and most universally applauded tribute act to Kate. Arguably, the band isn’t a ‘tribute’ in conventional terms, as no one is pretending to be Kate or impersonate her, instead the focus is on the authenticity of the music. Testament to this is that many of Kate’s original collaborators from both stage and the studio have been inspired to join the band for performances.

  • Kate Bush, Un Destin "Aérien"…
    KATE BUSH L’AERIENNE… "I'm a songwriter, not a personality and I find it difficult to talk about my songs sometimes. In a way, they speak for themselves and the subjects or inspirations can be so personal or just seem ridiculous when spoken about." (Kate Bush, KBC magazine, 1987) Auteur-compositeur-interprète de talent, Kate Bush est surtout connue pour sa voix fort expressive (qui couvre largement 4 octaves !), ses paroles de portée littéraire et/ou imaginaire ainsi que par son style musical aventureux et ses productions méticuleuses. Depuis ses débuts discographiques en 1978 (avec le hit "wuthering heights", qui resta numéro 1 dans les charts britanniques durant 4 semaines), elle compte un nombre considérable de fans fidèles de part le monde. Tout le monde (ou presque…) a déjà entendu au moins une fois "babooshka" ou "running up that hill", deux singles qui ont littéralement cassés la baraque à leur sortie. A l’occasion de son grand retour après douze ans d’absence (son dernier opus "The red shoes" date tout de même de 1993 !) et avec un double album de surcroît ("Aerial"), la rédaction du Koid’9 a pensé qu’il serait bon de vous faire réviser le "petit K.T. illustré" (Kate cache ce sigle – qui signifie littéralement en anglais Cathy - sur tous ses albums depuis le premier, le saviez-vous ?) et pourquoi pas, pour les plus chanceux d’entre vous, faire découvrir l’univers unique et magique de la belle Cathy. Vous découvrirez ainsi, outre une biographie la plus complète possible, sa discographie et vidéographie commentée, ses diverses collaborations musicales, les sites Internet majeurs la concernant et une intéressante monographie sur son univers de "femme étoile"… Permettez-moi donc de vous souhaiter chaleureusement la bienvenue dans un monde sensuel, féerique et envoûtant à la limite de l’étrange et du merveilleux… Un dossier amoureusement préparé par Renaud Oualid avec les aimables participations de Thierry de Fages, Cyrille Delanlssays, Marc Moingeon et Cousin Hub.
