Description
"Dismissed by your mates, and ignored by loving spouse?Are you slave to
many goblins, and can't escape the house?" - Welcome to Frenemies, the
new original album from Eliza Carthy and the Restitution
Eiza Carthy MBE has been the multi award- winning irreverent, passionate, difficult
face of English folk punk and traditional music since the early 1990s. Born into a
formidable musical dynasty, her mother Norma was one of The Watersons and her
father Martin Carthy is a hugely influential singer and guitarist, the incredible range of
traditional and contemporary musicians who were part of the extended Waterson/
Carthy world helped her develop her own unique approach to music.
She has headed the grit, beauty, humour, heartbreak, poetry and dance of the form for
over thirty years, and is here with another of her trademark fulcrum albums.
Here she represents the loudest, loneliest women in love, in her third era and reflecting
on motherhood, betrayal and forgiveness. Fury about the state of the world, support
for the LGBTQIA+ community, laughing and letting the Gen X hang out, with her chief
co-writer and co-producer Ben Seal (Martin Carthy & ???), and her virtuoso long-term
band.
Fifteen tracks, over an hour of music. Welcome back to the album as art form.
Tracks: Call U In / A Tree Used 2 Grow Here / Frenemies / Mr Sits in the Dark /
Swing 4 U / U From the Future / Moisturise / Eat The Weak / Honey / Delighted /
Never Again / The Tick / Except 4 U / Eggshell / The Wine Song
