LOU RHODES @ NIEUWE KERK

Note! This Paard op Hol event will take place at the Nieuwe Kerk (Spui 167, 2511 BM Den Haag).You might recognize her extraordinairy voice from Lamb, the trip hop hit from the nineties with songs such as the hypnotizing 'Gabriel'. But the British singer waved electronic music goodbye and discovered the beauty of acoustic guitars, swinging strings and refined piano during her solo adventure that will bring her to the Nieuwe Kerk (The New Church) this autumn. The 51-year old singer-songwriter has already released four albums in the past few years. One of them is the marvellous 'Beloved One', that got nominated for a Mercury Prize in 2006. This year she released the more psychedelic 'theyesandeye', full of open-hearted lyrics. 'That she does with Lamb is beautiful quite often, but the solo work of Lou Rhodes is breathtaking from start till end', as a Dutch critic from music blog Krenten Uit De Pop writes. Take this chance to see and hear this breathtaking music for yourself in the realm of the atmospheric New Church.
