LUKA BLOOM + MaRain

Op 20 oktober verschijnt `Eleven Songs´, de nieuwe CD van Luka Bloom. Hij heeft zijn huis- studio verwisseld voor een grote studio, zelf zegt hij daarover: "The songs seemed to demand I move away from my comfort zone, and go to a large studio, with great musicians, where we would simply play the songs live together. Sounds obvious, but for many years I had recorded in a very safe, controlled way, wanting to always retain the feeling of my solo shows. This always meant people recording after me in the studio. We decided to make a more traditional style record; great room, great musicians and singers, old microphones. We wanted to capture an honest, and hopefully beautiful performance of the songs. I don't mind admitting that the template for the record was the sound on the Alison Krauss\Robert Plant record of 2007, Raising Sand. It seemed like a long time since I had heard such a raw, beautiful room sound. And we both thought, lets try to record the songs this way." De puurheid van Eleven Songs spreekt voor zich.
