Eddi Reader
Eddi Reader is an artists that I think I've seen
at Cambridge more times than I actually have. There's two main reasons for that. Her
relatively close proximity to the Cambridge site and the way she often creeps in a
conversation when talking to other folk fans.
It's about half a dozen years since Eddi played Cambridge and about half that
long since she's released a new album. This year she does both so it's
not exactly what you'ld call a coincidence.
You really can't talk about Eddi Reader without mentioning
her stunning voice. She is an artist
that truly is distinctive, which may be one of the reasons why she
has sung next to so many different people. She is also
able to bring top draw musicians to her work over the years
so you are never exactly sure what you are going to get from an
Eddi Reader set.
I'd like to think that this is going to be an eclectic mix of old and new, but I'm just happy that
she's back up on stage at Cambridge
