APRIL ANDERSON
Our new featured artist is Staffordshire-born April Anderson, a multi-talented singer-songwriter based in London. Her music is a heady mixture of contemporary folk and jazz with a wry, observational approach to her songwriting. She's just released a wonderful debut album, "Swings And Roundabouts" (on which she plays all guitars, flute, mandolin and piano !), for which she's getting some great reviews:-
“It's a new direction that the acoustic scene has been waiting for!” - David Crickmore, BBC producer
“Fabulous" - Sue Marchant Show, BBC RADIO CAMBRIDGESHIRE
April will be appearing at the Icarus Club on 21st January. Meanwhile, check out her myspace page

(You can hear April's tracks on
Icarus Radio sometime between a quarter to and a quarter past every "odd" hour, so 7 pm, 9pm, 11pm etc. throughout the day and night)
