"Big tunes and beefy ballads ... the polished sounds and skillful arrangements make it sound like she's been doing it for decades"
UNCUT
Helen Boulding's remarkable debut album well and truly sets her up as a rising star who's
time has come. Already a songwriter of note, Helen is now stealing a little of the limelight back for herself -
and this accomplished first outing, full of aching melodies and empathetic lyrics, suggests that Helen will be
around for a long while to come.
Already featuring on Radio playlists and TV commercials, Helen - who has been compared to Carole King, Eva Cassidy, Carly
Simon to name but a few, and likened to a female Chris Martin - has supported artists such as Chris Difford, Glenn
Tilbrook, Bryan Ferry, Ronan Keating, John Mayor and Cara Dillon live - and her 2 month nationwide tour of Caffè Nero's
is a major outing in a new, quieter and more acoustic direction.
New Red Dress - a former Radio 2 Album Of The Week, is produced by the omni-present Youth
(Crowded House/U2/Dido/Primal Scream/Embrace), and includes the singles Breathe, Copenhagen, and Way To Go.
