Kate Jackson

British Road Movies


Kate Jackson is back. The former frontwoman of the Long Blondes is pleased to announce her debut solo album, British Road Movies. The record was written by Jackson alongside guitarist and producer Bernard Butler (Suede, The Tears) at West Heath Studios in London. These ten songs were conceived as cinematic starting points, movie titles with lyrical story-boards. With 'British Road Movies' Jackson paints scenes and tells stories, paying homage to the colour, weather and architecture seen from every car windscreen. 'British Road Movies' takes in eclectic musical styles, from synth driven glam rock to Blade Runner electronica, faded piano allure to sweeping strings alt-country. All these recordings have two things in common, Jackson's unique vocal top line and Butler's instantly recognisable guitar. These are big, melodic alternative pop songs, with the guitarist's naturally cinematic production perfectly complementing the narrative of the record.
