We say
Californian folk artist Alela Diane's 2006 debut 'The Pirate's Gospel' won widespread acclaim on release and was voted Rough Trade's Album of the Year. The follow-up LP 'To Be Still' is released in the UK though Names Records next month. A contrast from the stark arrangements of her debut, To Be Still benefits from a bigger sound throughout, providing captivating moments like White As Diamonds.
