Katie Melua Album No 8 out Now 232.91 Kb October 16th 2020 Katie Melua – Album No. 8 – Out Now Album No. 8 – released October 16th 2020 on BMG. Listen / buy HERE Daily Telegraph - Album of the Week ★★★★ “…evoking the fall of autumnal leaves” “dreamy, spooky, precise and mature” Daily Mail ★★★★ “Elegant, orchestral pop” Mail on Sunday – ★★★★ “…short, sweet and soothing.” The Times - “A glamorous, grown-up album” The Independent - ‘A richly autumnal affair’ Metro – “As comforting as a cashmere sweater” TheArtsDesk – “full of light and air and pleasing textures” Port Magazine - “soulful and intimate” Georgian/British singer, songwriter and musician Katie Melua today releases her 8th studio album. Simply titled Album No. 8, the record is the 36-year-old’s most personal, and assured, record of her seventeen-year career. Album No 8 has been met with strong critical praise with The Times remarking on the record’s “shades of Dusty Springfield, Minnie Riperton and other stars of the late Sixties/early Seventies golden age’ while the Sunday Times described the opening track (A Love Like That) as “sinuous, sepulchral pop- noir at its most enveloping.” Music OMH declared the album is “A compendious set of cinematic, soothing and poignant songs, showcasing a deeper maturity not only in Melua’s voice, but also in her song writing.” while the Daily Telegraph wrote “…it is the languid melodies, unhurried rhythms and gentle balance of acoustic instruments with richly orchestrated strings that convey Melua’s self- composure. This is a laid-back album, drawing on the dreamy Seventies milieu of Laurel Canyon with a touch of the easy listening sumptuousness of Burt Bacharach.” ‘Sunday Express noted that the album “sees her in control from start to finish.” with Music News calling it “…a gloriously cinematic record.” Justifiably, Album No. 8 is BBC Radio 2’s Album Of The Week, where the latest single ‘Your Longing Is Gone’ – an autumnal farewell to a fading love – is also on their playlist. Album No 8 sees Melua taking the role of sole lyricist, and the deeply personal lyrics see her attempting to reconcile the knotty complexities of real-life love to its fairytale counterpart. Recorded in London and Georgia, the record features The Georgian Philharmonic Orchestra and a special guest appearance from the Gori Women’s Choir. The record’s producer, classical ambient guitarist Leo Abrahams, “infuses these chamber-pop confessionals with the crackle and throb of ambient electronica” (Metro) while “his spacious, almost weightless arrangements really hit the sweet spot” (Daily Telegraph). Album No. 8 Tracklisting A Love Like That English Manner Leaving The Mountain Joy Voices In the Night Maybe I Dreamt It Heading Home Your Longing Is Gone Airtime Remind Me To Forget Katie Melua is one of Britain's most successful musical artists, with a catalogue that has been certified 56 times platinum around the globe. Originally from Kutaisi, in the former Soviet republic of Georgia, Melua moved to the UK at the age of eight. Something of a prodigious musical talent she released her debut album Call Off The Search when she was just 19 years old. Since then, Melua has released seven UK Top 10 studio albums: Call Off The Search, Piece By Piece, Pictures, The House, Secret Symphony, Ketevan and, most recently, 2016’s self-produced, critically acclaimed In Winter, which she recorded with the Gori Women's Choir in her native Georgia. She and Kate Bush are the only two British female artists in UK chart history to reach the Top Ten with seven consecutive albums.

  • A Gloriously Cinematic Exploration of Love, with Lyrics Written by Katie
    A gloriously cinematic exploration of love, with lyrics written by Katie Melua, and production by Leo Abrahams – ‘A LOVE LIKE THAT’ is a true tour-de-force of artistic and lyrical maturity. This is songcraft at its finest, with Melua’s faultless performance completely inhabiting the song, and the musical presentation and arrangements expertly executed by Abrahams, co-composer Sam Dixon, and mixers Cameron Craig and Luke Potashnick. The full cast of exceptional musicians on this track also includes drummer Emre Ramazanoglu, flautist Jack Pinter, and The Georgian Philharmonic Orchestra. A LOVE LIKE THAT – released 30 JUNE 2020 Listen HERE The video for ‘A Love Like That’ is the first in a series of stunning visuals Melua has collaborated on with the award-winning director Charlie Lightening (Paul McCartney, Liam Gallagher, Kasabian) and featuring Billy Howle (Star Wars, Dunkirk, Outlaw King). Watch the video HERE The single is the first to be taken from Melua’s forthcoming studio album Album No. 8, a record that represents the culmination of a prolonged period of musical rediscovery for the 35-year-old. The lyrics, her most personal yet, see her attempting to reconcile the knotty complexities of real-life love to its fairytale counterpart. Elsewhere, Melua draws from the vernacular of folk songs to evoke a sense of magic-hour wonder mirrored by string arrangements whose depth and movement evoke Charles Stepney’s work with Rotary Connection and Ramsey Lewis. What results is her most cohesive and assured album to date. ALBUM No. 8 – released 16 OCTOBER 2020 Pre-order HERE Album No.

  • Pressemitteilung Zu Katie Melua
    Pressemitteilung zu Katie Melua Die charmante Singer/Songwriterin Katie Melua zaubert mit dem Gori Women’s Choir am 31.10.18 ein Wintersong-Programm auf die Bühne des Mehr! Theaters Hamburg, Dezember 2017 – Mit einem stimmungsvollen Wintersong-Programm überraschte und begeisterte Katie Melua 2016 Presse und Publikum. „Es ist pure Magie“, schrieb der ‚Münchner Merkur’ damals über das Aufeinandertreffen der weltbekannten Popsängerin (Hits: „Nine Million Bicycles“, „The Closest Thing To Crazy“) mit dem Gori Women’s Choir. Ende 2018 kommt es, im Einklang mit einer gemeinsamen Albumveröffentlichung, zur Neuauflage der außergewöhnlichen Gastspielreise. Und auch das zweite musikalische Rendezvous mit dem 23-köpfigen Vokalensemble aus Meluas Heimatland Georgien steht ganz im Zeichen der atmosphärischen Einstimmung auf die kalte Jahreszeit. Am 31.10.18 geben mal Interpretationen traditioneller Volkslieder, mal sparsam instrumentierte Eigenkompositionen und Coverversionen den Ton im Hamburger Mehr! Theater an. Die Reduktion aufs Wesentliche zeigt Wirkung: „Meluas akzentuierter, glasklarer Gesang entfaltet seinen Zauber und es lenkt nicht viel davon ab“ (‚Münchner Merkur’). Tickets für die Wohlfühlkonzerte der 33-Jährigen kosten im Vorverkauf zwischen 35 und 100 Euro (zzgl. Gebühr). Pressekontakt: Erik Sabas +49 40 4133018-40 [email protected] river_concerts www.riverconcerts.de River Concerts In der Zusammenarbeit mit dem Frauenchor aus Gori schließt sich für die zierliche Sängerin ein Kreis. 1993 verlässt Ketevan Melua, wie „Katie“ mit richtigem Vornamen heißt, gemeinsam mit ihren Eltern Georgien. Über den Umweg Belfast landet sie als Jugendliche in London und reift zum Popstar heran. Aus Heimatverbundenheit reift jedoch der Wunsch, auf Spurensuche zu gehen, um beide musikalischen Welten zu vereinen: „Ich wollte unbedingt mit diesen Frauen arbeiten.

We went with just me and Billy Howle on screen, we tried to show with subtle gestures and nuances the truth of love in its early stages.” Katie Melua is one of Britain's most successful musical artists, with a catalogue that has been certified 56 times platinum around the globe.
