It’s about time we let slip that Sarah Birch of festival favourites Lost Tuesday Society is recording her debut solo Album for Death Monkey Records! Work is already underway and Sarah was at Abertawe Road Studios this week with producer Dave Milsom and some special guests.
The illustrious Mavron Quartet came down to the studio to record string parts for several of the songs on the upcoming album, which is due for release early next year. Sarah worked with the prolific Cardiff based arranger Sebastian Goldfinch to write the Quartet parts, who is also known for being part of the Welsh electro duo Cotton Wolf.
Sarah Birch is best known as lead singer in alternative Folk troupe Lost Tuesday Society and has been slowly gathering material for a solo album over the past year. The Ballad of Peter and Jane is a concept album about a dysfunctional relationship, while mainly Folk based, the production process has seen Sarah explore a more contemporary sound with hints of electronica, as well as a few guest appearances from the local scene.
