INFO


I t is no longer a secret that Lady Linn has a very rich and unique voice with a v ersatility that is second to none, ensuring that she is right at home in a myria d of styles.

She proved exactly that in her new 'trilogy', a series o f three E.P.'s - 'I'm Fine', 'Sea of Trees' & 'Nocturne'- each one telling its o wn unique story, and now bundled on the album 'Trilogy'.

The common t hread throughout the album is her affinity with jazz, soul and dance, but also l yrically, various themes return: the tenderness within family life, melancholy, nature, and the magic of the dance floor.

There is also a clear evolu tion with the arrangements going from a sober, stripped-down quasi-electronic so und of the JX-03 on 'I'm fine' (with contributions from Gustaph, Gregory Frateur and producer Frederik Segers) to dreamy and warm analog synths by producer Jori s Caluwaerts on 'Sea of Trees', to an organic, energetic sixties sound on 'Noctu rne' with starring role for her partner and bass player Filip Vandebril and part ners in crime: The Magnificent Seven, arranger Frederik Heirman and producer Jan Chantrain.

In addition to a selection of the three EPs, 'Trilogy' al so includes the extra song 'Hurricane', one of Linn's personal favorites, record ed at Daft Studios with The Magnificent Seven:

'I had just watched a documentary on Laurel Canyon (on the topic of Los Angeles - the epicentre of the 'counter culture' or better 'hippie culture' - in the late 60's and early 70's and the habitat of The Mamas and the Papas, Frank Zappa, Jim Morrison, etc.) whi ch fed my fascination for the 60's that I already had thanks to my parents. The way in which music was created and recorded in that era is a dream for every mus ician, me included. With the surplus in time due to the lack of gigs during the pandemic the time was right to follow my dream and record in the Daft Studios wi th my own band. I felt a bit like Carol King behind my piano, but I was also ins pired by Joni Mitchell.'

A quote from the lyrics of 'Hurricane': 'I w anna feel the wind like the birds outside/Dive like a seagull, enter the water f rom flight/Into the deep I slide'.

'A very personal song about losing yourself and the longing for freedom. I composed this one specifically with 60' s songs in mind, with loads of modulations and pretty complex chords.'

Lady Linn wrote a versatile trilogy, inspired by a diverse set of influences that had her digging in music history in a very original and contemporary way. S he also made her mark on the sound of the productions. On both 'I'm Fine' and 'N octurne' she was co-producer.
