The UK Guardian have described her as ‘The UK’s best example to date of ethereal, twisted R&B.’ with others describing her sound as ‘what would happen if TLC met Aphex Twin at a psy-trance carnival’ or a ‘trip-hop Sade’….
Official Press Release for the Album below….
FKA twigs today announces details of her much-anticipated debut album. The London-based producer, singer, songwriter and video director will release LP1 on 8th August 2014 via the Young Turks label.
LP1 is FKA twigs defining artistic statement to date, building on the success of her two previous EPs and accompanying videos (‘EP1’ and ‘EP2’) which have elevated FKA twigs from a word-of-mouth secret to global obsession over the past two years. LP1 features none of these previously released songs; instead each track on LP1 is brand new, born out of FKA twigs’ artistic philosophy of spontaneous creation and collaboration in the studio.
LP1 also features artwork from Jesse Kanda, who has manipulated his own photographs of twigs to stunning effect. Kanda previously directed the acclaimed videos for FKA twigs’ ‘Water Me’ and ‘How’s That’ songs.
The LP1 tracklist is:
1. Preface
2. Lights On
3. Two Weeks
4. Hours
5. Pendulum
6. Video Girl
7. Numbers
8. Closer
9. Give Up
10. Kicks
