Kate Blanchette

A writer, Ned Kendall, is asked to return to the family home by his sister Sally, to say goodbye to his father who is dying. The family home is in a very remote and isolated area. While back home, Ned starts having memories of his beautiful twin sister and himself when they were children. These memories awaken long-buried secrets from the family's past.

Kate Davis' journey continues to be fascinating. A one-time Presidential Scholar of the Arts, Davis is a conservatory-educated musician who started her journey as a bass-playing jazz prodigy who once recorded a very straight album of Christmas favorites. While living in Brooklyn may have provided the spark, the multi-instrumentalist Davis eventually morphed into a confessional indie rock solo singer-songwriter, suddenly changing her sound and look on 2019's Trophy, which was recorded after co-writing "Seventeen," a successful Sharon Van Etten single.

'Light Years', released a few days before Kate's 50th birthday, is Rusby's 7th Christmas record and features vocals by Alison Krauss and Ron Block. Her love of Christmas music and upbringing on a rich tradition of 'local carols' is no secret to her many fans.' Light Years', a lyric in one of the albums songs, is full of Rusby-fied versions of carols and well-known songs which depict in her own words, "Joyful memories of music, family, community, warmth and happiness - and a little wine!"

Renowned folk singer-songwriter Kate Rusby is set to release her highly anticipated new album, When They All Looked Up, on April 25th, 2025. This marks her first collection of brand-new material—outside of her beloved Christmas albums—in six years. Featuring a stunning mix of original compositions and reimagined traditional songs, the album showcases Kate’s signature warmth, storytelling, and unmistakable voice, which remains as breathtakingly beautiful as ever, even after 30-plus years in the industry.

Closing the distance between classical music and Broadway, between the old world and the new, this album is born out of a stunning encounter between two performers. Kate Lindsey is an opera star whose career is skyrocketing. She has stunned audiences with her performances of Mozart and Purcell. Baptiste Trotignon is a multi award-winning jazz pianist who plays with big names like Brad Mehldau or Tom Harrell, but who has a long-held interest in classical music, even composing a piano concerto for Nicholas Angelich. Together, they have produced a rich and varied programme around the songs of Kurt Weill, from Nanna’s Lied to Trouble Man, and classics from The Threepenny Opera and Lost in the Stars.

Tracks 1 to 24 are home demos recorded in 1974. Tracks 25 to 29 are studio out-takes with the KT Bush band recorded in 1975. A little history is in order regarding this release for those who may not know the story.
In 1972/73 Kate recorded several tapes of songs. Twenty to thirty of these songs were presented to record companies by John Carder Bush's friend Ricky Hopper, at first without success. Then Ricky Hopper presented the songs to David Gilmour. Gilmour noticed her talent, but also the bad tape recorder quality. A recording session took place at Kate's house with Gilmour in 1973. Only Kate was recorded, accompanied by her piano, but with a better recorder. Gilmour has spoken at least twice about this session in interviews. “I did some recording at her house, her parent's house…I know that one of the first songs that I noted was ‘The Man With the Child in His Eyes’, out of many songs that she had written. She was only 14, I think, when I met her, maybe just about 15.”
