Cate Le Bon + Koruth

TICKETS

Welsh music visionary Cate Le Bon returns to Prague after ten years, presenting her seventh solo record Michelangelo Dying

“I tried not to make a record about heartache, but it kept veering back. I surrendered to the process. There’s no linear storyline, it’s more like collage, the fragmented nature of memory and the grieving of a fantasy.”

Cate Le Bon follows up her acclaimed studio albums Reward and Pompeii as well as the many successful production projects – spanning Wilco’s Cousin, Horsegirl’s Phonetics On and On, and St. Vincent’s Grammy-winning All Born Screaming – with a new album Michelangelo Dying, a shimmering song cycle that picks at wounds even as it tries to preserve them, an iridescent, layered meditation on love, loss, and the unknowable self.

With a moving guest collaboration with John Cale (The Velvet Underground) and a sonic palette that folds guitars, saxophones, and synths into something both intimate and expansive, Le Bon once again invites listeners into a world where feeling overrides form, and abstraction becomes its own kind of truth. As part of her European tour in support of the new record, Cate Le Bon will play a show at Prague's MeetFactory on August 17. The night will open with Koruth, the experimental ambient project of visual artist and musician Anna Ruth, who weaves dreamlike melodies from the flute, her voice, and electronics into improvised atmospheric collages.​
 

“The Carmarthenshire-born artist and producer morphs into the Eno of our times, delivering a career-defining meditation on things falling apart.” – The Quietus
