Laura Mvula, a singer/composer from Birmingham has created a brand new, wonderful album.
She says "harmony is my first love", and that's true, her music is even described by critics as "Nina Simone sings The Beach Boys". Others mention the word 'gospeldelia'. It's an honest and very original album. Her lead voice can be soulful and in free rhythm, but the harmonies are very tight, with jazzy, modern voicings.
