“Rachael Dadd is one of the most talented wise prolific and important women of our times" - Kate Stables of This is the Kit
“Contender for best of the year lists....you never know what she’s going to do next” - Lauren Laverne, BBC 6 Music
“Brilliant singer songwriter...cogent and thought provoking” - Lauren Laverne, BBC 6 Music
Living half her time as a traveling musician in Japan, witnessing how other people create things, connecting with other cultures and landscapes; all this is a furnace for innovative songwriting. Contemporary folk multi-instrumentalist Rachael Dadd is on a strong path with so much interest and support from DJs, tastemakers, her contemporaries and key people in the music industry. She has been gaining the reputation as a pioneering and thought provoking artist unafraid to push the boundaries of folk and pop.
Rachael Dadd released her 6th album Flux on Memphis Industries on the 8th November 2019. Produced with Marcus Hamblett (Villagers / Laura Marling), Flux is a response to external and internal tides: the flow of life up-rooted; a protest against the flow of recent political history; a diary of the flow within the intimate space of home. Collaborators include multi-instrumentalist Emma Gatrill (Willie Mason / Matthew and the Atlas), drummer Rob Pemberton (Emily Barker / Low Chimes), bassist Jim Barr (Portishead) and vocalists Kate Stables and Rozi Plain (This is The Kit)
