Alice Phoebe Lou’s fiercely independent approach to music has given the singer songwriter a creative confidence that shines through in her captivating vocals and stripped back music. Having developed her bluesy folk sound in Berlin, Lou has caught the ears of a community of music lovers the world over with her honest storytelling and raw, beautiful voice.

 

Playing intimate gigs across Europe and South Africa, while supporting established likeminded artists like Rodriguez, has led Lou to release her first full length studio album, Orbit. Comprised of nine eclectic, jazz-influenced, tracks recorded between Cape Town and Berlin, Orbit encapsulates the freshness of her live style and vagabond spirit, and showcases her distinctive soprano voice. Produced by Matteo and Kyson, the album is a testament to Lou’s collaborative way of writing, and features musicians from South Africa and Europe lending their musical skills and different visual artists producing art works to match each track. The result is an intricately woven pattern of soul, blues, jazz, and retro-beatnik melodies augmented by soothing vocal harmonies and sleazy brass flourishes.
