Welsh multi-instrumentalist The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies) will release her second album, ‘The Art of Losing’, via Kscope next year on Friday 5th March, and the album's first single, ‘Show Your Face’, is today's Video Of The Day. A Depeche Mode flavoured retort to toxic masculinity that features guitar from Manic Street Preachers’ James Dean Bradfield (who also sings a duet on the album) and drums from Sterling Campbell (David Bowie, Duran Duran), the new single weaves its dark synth magic following up on her sonically audacious debut, ‘Confessions of A Romance Novelist’. Indeed, her debut was named amongst the Guardian critics’ Albums of the Year, nominated for the Welsh Music Prize, named HMV’s Welsh Album of the Year and won Best Newcomer at the PROG awards! Next year, The Anchoress will also be performing her new material at London's Queen Elizabeth Hall on Saturday 10th July.
