Dancing

Description

Dancing is songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer and performer Nancy Elizabeths third album, and her first new material since 2009.

Nancy wrote and recorded almost everything herself over the course of two and half years in her tiny home studio in Manchester .For the first time Nancy used a computer as a compositional tool alongside her idiosyncratic palette of instruments, including a battered piano, guitar, and her own multilayered vocals. The end result is more ambitious, more focused and more uplifting than anything shes done before.

While the adventurous sounds she used create a mesmeric physical effect, the emotional purity of the lyrics is just as powerful . First single The Last Battle opens the album, a magnificent introduction to its trove of pure musical delights. A soaring, celestialsoprano
array, the song recalls Ennio Morricone and Arthur Lee, building to an irresistible climax.

Featuring artwork created by Nancy herself, the album will be available on limited edition vinyl LP (including a CD of the album).

Nancy has some big fans in the UK media, including Rob Da Bank, Guy Garvey, Paul Morley, Marc Riley, Laura Barton and Stuart Maconie.

Nancy has previously collaborated with a wide range of artists including James Yorkston, Hauschka, Adem, Paul White, Susumu Yokota, James Blackshaw and the London Sinfonietta.
