High

Genre : Album | Pop
Release date : Monday 31 march 2014
Principal country concerned : Column : Music

"On ‘High', Lady Linn shamelessly flirts with electronic dance pop and Donna Summer-disco, beats and synths, and acoustic guitars. The trademark jazz rhythms of her two previous records reappear as well, but electronically arranged. Lady Linn: ‘This time around, I really wanted to do things in a different way.'

As a songwriter, she was ready for a jump in the unknown. Instead of writing songs on her piano, Lady Linn decided to write her new songs on the guitar. As a lyricist too, Lady Linn experienced a transformation of some sorts. Inspired by the gigs she did with her house-project FCL, where she covers house classics with her soulful voice, Lady Linn wrote more direct, heartfelt lyrics.

The resulting songs are Lady Linn's most honest to date. ‘High' was produced by Renaud Letang (Jane Birkin, Feist…), with whom she also worked on her previous record ‘No Goodbye At All'. The French producer is a kindred spirit that Lady Linn trusts 100%."
