Faithless star Sudha to go solo

added: 20 Jan 2009 // by: newsdesk 

The album release will be preceeded on 23rd February by the single, 'Leche' with stunning remixes from Way Out West and Thomas Schwartz.

Sudha has enjoyed huge global success as part of Faithless, touring the world numerous times. Her unquestionable skills as a musician have also seen her featured as Percussionist on records and tours with huge mainstream artists including Dido, Kylie and The Spice Girls. Alongside this Sudha still maintains a credible underground status as one of clubland's first ever Percussionists, holding down residencies at legendary clubs like Cream and The Hacienda.

Those expecting 'Anti-Freeze' to simply showcase Sudha's skills as a Percussionist will be pleasantly surprised to find a rich collection of songs, crossing genres and moving through laid back grooves, uplifting, atmospheric tracks and funked up anthems. The songs feature intelligent lyrics and soaring vocal performances from guest collaborators such as Zoe Johnston (Faithless, Bent) and David Sanderson (The Hat) as well as Sudha herself.

Sudha's Asian roots are beautifully woven into the album with melodies and samples from the likes of Shilpa Shetty and Lata Mangeshkar. These influences somehow sit easily alongside her love for old skool electro and simple yet beautiful, hook-laden songs.

Sudha has proven her skills as an accomplished writer and producer and has delivered a debut artist album that unarguably deserves love and attention.
