Anna Calvi performing at Bluedot Festival 2019 (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
Anna Calvi has shared her Eden collaboration with Charlotte Gainsbourg.
Gainsbourg is just one of a number of artists whom Calvi invited to put a new take on her sublime 2018 album Hunter; Courtney Barnett, Joe Talbot of Idles and Julia Holter have also contributed to Hunted, which is out on March 6th.
“Charlotte Gainsbourg has taught me so much as a singer, in how the most quiet of utterances can be the most dramatic and powerful of all,” Calvi says. “When I was writing Eden I had Charlotte’s voice in my head – there’s a secrecy and quiet power to this song that always made me think of her. It’s a dream come true to have collaborated with her.”
