I'm excited to be seeing her perform here in Atlanta on the night of this album's release.

A few details about it from the Basia website...

It contains 15 songs recorded live but also 2 completely new studio tracks and an acoustic version of a song from the last album ('There's a Tear'), which we thought gained in emotion in the new arrangement.

The concert featured on "From Newport to London" was recorded in June 2011 in Łódź, in Poland.

There are two new songs on our new album, recorded in the studio. The title track is an expression of our love for European film music and the world of art - a story of infatuation with a stranger on a train, who is in himself a 'work of art'. It will become clearer what I am talking about when You hear the track. The other song is called 'Wandering'; it talks about 'travelling' through life with someone we love; through problems, mistakes, silliness but always surviving the worst and looking forward to new adventures together.

I sing this song here with another Polish singer, who is an established and well known artist in Poland, Mietek Szcześniak, whose fan I have been for a long time. Recently I was honoured to be asked by him to duet on 'Save the Best for Last' for his new album, soon to be released. One of the writers of this fantastic song is Mietek's co-writer and producer - Wendy Waldman. I was thrilled to sing this song, one of my all time favourites, made famous by Vanessa Williams, of course. I only hope I did it justice, although I approached this task with great trepidation.

The new studio tracks were mixed by our great friend (since 'The Sweetest Illusion' album) - David Bascombe, whose work is always outstanding.

Terrific news David!
