Red Kite

• Track Listing

Highly-anticipated 2015 solo album by Saint Etienne's lead singer Sarah Cracknell. Red Kite, the belated follow-up to her 1997 album Lipslide, is fan-fared by the single 'Nothing Left To Talk About', a duet with guest vocalist Nicky Wire of the Manic Street Preachers. Musically, Red Kite has a sophisticated, pastoral feel, drawing on classic '60s pop with less of a dance music influence than Saint Etienne. Sarah has co-written all the songs bar one cover version, 'The Mutineer'. Recorded at Big Pink, Oxfordshire and in Cardiff in winter 2014 and early 2015, the album has been co-produced by Carwyn Ellis (Colorama).
