Singer/songwriter Kirsten Adamson summons the same heart-stopping purity as Sandy Denny, by way of Emmylou Harris and Kate Bush. Transcendence runs in the family. Her father was Stuart Adamson (Skids, Big Country) and her mother Alexandra, a champion Highland dancer. With summers spent soaking up the atmosphere in Nashville with her dad and a string of leading roles in musical theatre back in the UK, the teenage Adamson's course was set. She sang backing vocals on Big Country's last album 'Driving to Damascus' at age 13. By 2010, she was forging her own career as a vocalist and keyboard player for indie-folkers Aberfeldy. She fronted country rockers The Gillyflowers and more recently shone as half of alt-country duo The Marriage, and then on a self-titled solo debut. The austere beauty of her voice has been a constant motif. Her new album 'Landing Place' is a collection of songs that encompasses an emotional inward journey - foremost, becoming a mother, reflection, and coming to terms with all that has been and gone so far. 'Landing Place' lets Kirsten deploy her traditional and painfully honest story-telling. Through soaring melodies and burning sentiments they reproduce vivid images of Kirsten's real life characters, essence of circumstance and consciousness of landscape.
