"This 5 tracker comes from the breathy school of Colin Blunstone / Nick Drake but with some great pop sensibility. Strong vocals are not the only thing drawing me towards this, the music itself hits the spot and augments the great lyrics and vocals. One to watch out for..."
- Jumbo Records, Jumbo Records review
"This is laying down by a quiet river, next to the person you love, reading a book and eating a peach either early spring or a southern autumn (you decide) sort of album... listen to it, you'll know what I mean. It is beautiful to say the least. I am a new fan of Bruno Merz"
- Ben Bozon, iTunes reviews (Mar 24, 2009)
"This new ghostly folk music has shed the old skin of protest songs didactic diatribes. This is painfully personal, earnest music, that balances intensity and tension with quiet understatement and whispery vocals."
- CD Baby editors, CD Baby
"The CD Baby editorial staff hears hundreds of albums every day and we love this album so much we're going to include it in our upcoming Haunting, Fractured Folk Pop collection. "

FRIZZ RECORDS is proud to announce our fourth LP release...
London-born with a heritage both European and Ghanaian, LEILA ADU was brought up in New Zealand, and is now based in Rome
She has been described as 'A Nina Simone for the Noughties', and her two acclaimed albums infuse a broadly 'art-rock' approach with elements of torch song, speakeasy blues, avant garde jazz, gamelan, the post-rock textures of Slint and Tortoise, and a David Lynch style dreamlike b-movie melodrama. As her website has it, exploring the "dissonant edges of familiar forms", but with that kind of 'dissonance' that they once accused Thelonious Monk or Debussy of, the kind that soon betrays it's own compelling melodic and harmonic logic to the attentive listener...
'Dark Joan', Leila's third album as a solo artist, was recorded in Chicago with the legendary Steve Albini (PJ Harvey, Joanna Newsome, Nirvana, Pixies), and Albini's genius has been to strip her sound back to it's essence, and hold it's most distinctive qualities up to the light. It doesn't hurt that this is by far Leila's most powerful set of songs to date, and if anything we are lead even deeper into her world by the pictures painted with just piano (or in some cases harpsichord or a grime-encrusted electric piano) and that voice...
Capable of anything from delicate heartbreaking purity to a fearsome dramatic power, her powers are seemingly limitless, yet unlike most other singers of her calibre, never does she resort to melodrama or show-boating, or any kind of pastiche, instead she employs her resources fully in the expression of her distinctive musical vision and the deep well-spring of her imagination. Nothing ever sounds as though it could have not been sung...
