Acantha Lang has just announced the release date for her
debut album "Beautiful Dreams". It is set for release on 30 Jun '23 and will be available digitally,
on CD and vinyl. You can pre-order now via Bandcamp.
Not surprisingly amongst its 13 tracks, it includes all of her 7 singles along with the title track of her "Sugar Woman" EP (which, in addition,
contained 3 singles and a cover of the Film Night theme Billy
Taylor Trio's "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free" later sung by
Nina Simone in 1967 on "Silk & Soul").
That leaves four new (unreleased) songs
and an interlude. Essentially it reflects her whole release catalogue. However, Ms Lang has covered over 100 songs on her YouTube channel under
the banner "Standing On The Shoulders Of ... " which has achieved almost
10m views.
Coincidentally, or not as the case may be as she has an album to
promote, she was the guest on Craig Charles' BBC Radio 6 Music Funk
& Soul Show last Saturday.
For anyone in and around London on Thursday (4 May), Acantha will be performing songs from the album at The Forge in Camden and then at Ronnie Scott's on the 7th, The Great Escape Festival, Brighton on 11th and Blues Kitchen, Manchester 18th. Tickets HERE.
Each single is suffixed in the order it were released.
01 - Sugar Woman (4 EP)
02 - Come Back Home
03 - Beautiful Dreams
04 - Eventually
05 - He Said / She Said (1)
06 - A Word From My Momma - Interlude
07 - Lois Lang (2)
08 - River Keep Runnin' (5)
09 - It's Gonna Be Alright (6)
10 - Carry The Weight (7)
11 - Whatever Happened To Our Love? (3)
12 - Keep On
13 - Ride This Train (Extended Version) (8)
In anticipation of the albums release, below are music videos for all
the singles plus one for "Eventually" (recorded in 2013) and "Keep
On". So that's 10 of the 12 songs (discounting the interlude).
