Who calls their first single Brothel?

Well Susanne Sundfor for one and ruddy excellent it is too! apparently shy by Nature, Sundfor hides behind swathes of smoke and lights for most of tonights headline show at Sentrum Scene but what we cant gide from is the fact that this is an incredible singer songwriter at the peak of her powers.

Backed by an epically equipped band (fender rhodes, cello, saxophone, vibrophone etc all mixed into a sprightly mix) the singer plays through the highlights of her upcoming debut album including a jaw dropping rendition of new single Brothel.

A richly woven tapestry of post rock and classic singer songwriter based jazz,
Sundfor is in possession of an incredible voice and more importantly a jaw dropping sense of dynamics and textures as electronica bleeps blend seamlessly with jazz rhodes and a swooping Florence-esque voice to end the night on a climactic high.

A resounding success and a highlight to remember on our snowy trudge back to the hotel.

Just. Wonderful.
