“Beguiling and insightful” - THE SUNDAY TIMES The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies) releases her long awaited album of modern reworkings, ‘Versions’ this autumn, via the recently relaunched Drowned in Sound label. This physical release compiles 10 re-imaginings of songs by the likes of Depeche Mode, The Cure, Nirvana, Nico and Halsey, all produced and mixed by Davies. The album will appear on limited edition Eco-Mix vinyl (limited to 1000 copies only) and beautiful signed gatefold CD, with 12 page full colour booklet and exclusive additonal bonus track. As Davies explains of the choice to press on Eco-Mix vinyl, “each record pressed will be a completely unique combination, reworked from leftover wax pellets which feels very apt for the concept of the album, as well as being a more eco-friendly method of production. I love the idea that, like the collection of songs being pieces of other people’s imaginations, this record is quite literally made up of unused parts of other records.” 1 Enjoy The Silence (Depeche Mode) 2 Bizarre Love Triangle (New Order) 3 Climbing Up The Walls (Radiohead) 4 Friday I’m In Love (The Cure) 5 Pennyroyal Tea (Nirvana)6 These Days (Nico) 7 Martha’s Harbour (All About Eve) 8 The Tradition (Halsey) 9 This Is Yesterday (Manic Street Preachers) 10 Sweetness Follows (R.E.M.)
