Rough Trade are very excited to present this Interactive Live Stream Zoom Q&A with The Anchoress, joined by special guest host Pete Paphides for an intimate conversation, with an opportunity for audience questions. This unique event celebrates the release of 'The Art of Losing', the new album from The Anchoress, released 12th March on Kscope. 

The Art of Losing is the second album from Welsh multi-instrumentalist The Anchoress (aka Catherine Anne Davies), following up on her critically acclaimed debut album, Confessions of A Romance Novelist, which was named amongst the Guardian critics' Albums of the Year, won HMV's Welsh Album of the Year, Best Newcomer at the Prog awards, and a nomination for the Welsh Music Prize.

Written and produced by Davies, the new album features guest performances from James Dean Bradfield (Manic Street Preachers) and drums from Sterling Campbell (David Bowie, Duran Duran) along with the mixing talents of Dave Eringa (Manics, Wilko Johnson) and grammy-award winner Mario McNulty (David Bowie, Prince, Laurie Anderson).

The Art Of Losing ambitiously navigates the topic of loss in all its forms and was written and recorded during an unfeasibly busy few years as Davies found solace and purpose in a range of projects whilst navigating her griefs. Most recently this came via the release of her collaborative album In Memory of My Feelings with Bernard Butler (on Pete Paphides' label Needle Mythology), duetting with the Manic Street Preachers on Resistance Is Futile, and being personally invited by The Cure's Robert Smith to perform at his Meltdown Festival. She also brought a new generation of ears to legendary Scottish rock band Simple Minds, where she spent much of the last five years appearing on the 'Big Music' (2015) and 'Walk Between Worlds' (2018) albums.

Tickets for this event also include a physical copy of the fantastic new album on your format of choice: CD, CD+ (Hardback Book Edition), LP and LP+ (with Bonus 7") delivered to your home address by Rough Trade.
