NATACHA ATLAS – LIVE

TIME: 7.30pm
ADMISSION: £10 advance
TICKETS: Available from Ticketweb

Natacha Atlas’s last album – Gedida, which appeared at the beginning of 1999 saw her career and profile taking great strides - and that upward momentum is set to continue with the release of Ayeshteni.
In the UK, Gedida was and across-the-board critical success, and sold more than her previous releases combined, helped on its way by a national tour in the company of Jimmy Page and Robert Plant and sold-out headlining shows at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London. But in France it was another story altogether – there, the album made her into a genuine star. Propelled by the success of the single “Mon Amie La Rose”, it sold 130,000 copies on the other side of the channel, and Natacha went on to win the Best Female Singer category at the Victoires de La Musique awards – the French equivalent of the Brits.

They can peddle post-rock, they can indulge themselves with angst-ridden pop. They can build reverberating, tear-welling symphonic walls of noise and they can most certainly play rock’n’roll.
