Description
Kathryn Williams – Crown Electric
13 track album on CD and 12″ vinyl + download.
Singer-songwriter Kathryn Williams returns with her 10th album, the first in almost four years. From the first song to the last, her lyrics have never been more astute, her melodies more memorable nor her arrangements more beautiful.
“Crown Electric opens with the jauntiest of tunes, a track called ‘Underground’. It’s entirely representative of Kathryn Williams’ style: a story of love and life, with many a bitter twist but packing a super-sweet ending, set to the prettiest folk-pop.
Everything here gels wonderfully well. There’s booming percussion and spiralling strings on ‘Count’, while ‘Morning Twilight’, a co-write with Ed Harcourt, is heart-breaking stuff.
Williams’ northern tones are softly spoken, yet richer than ever and full of character. ‘Tequila’ brings to mind the work of Françoise Hardy, and there’s space for a collaboration with James Yorkston.” – Clash
