Here’s some good news at last: Katie Spencer has a new album ready for release in October this year.

I knew this was due soon, and hoped a release date would be announced soon, so I was delighted to get a link by email this morning to let me pre-order the album. I’ll put the link in the first comment.

If you want to know what Katie’s playing and singing are like, check out my earlier review for a gig my brother and I attended last year. I’ll put a link to that review in the comments too. My brother and I already have tickets for her gig in Calstock, Cornwall, in September, and we’ll be looking forward to hearing more from her new LP when we get there.

If you need more convincing that you should investigate further, ask @Colin-h of this parish, as he’s a big fan too. And if the names John Martyn or Michael Chapman mean anything to you, please do check her out, she’s the real deal.
