Sing to the Moon
Sing To The Moon is the critically-acclaimed debut album by Laura Mvula. The 26-year-old classically trained singer-songwriter's music fuses orchestral soul with velvety harmonies and emotional vocals, utilizing her formal training at the Birmingham Conservatoire along with hints of her Caribbean background.
Sing To The Moon has received overwhelming critical praise in the UK, with the Daily Mail, the Daily Mirror, the Evening Standard, the Guardian, the Telegraph, and Metro all giving the album 4 stars and the Sunday Times selecting it as their Album of the Week. She was also nominated for the 2013 BRITs Critics' Choice Award and ranked fourth on the shortlist for the coveted BBC Sound of 2013.
Mvula played showcases at the FADER Fort, Hype Machine's Hype Hotel, the VEVO TV Control Room, and the BMI & Billboard Acoustic Brunch at this year's SXSW. The New York Times featured Laura as one of their picks from this year, describing her set as "polished and unconventionally structured songs that suggested Joan Armatrading by way of Cecil B. DeMille. Her songs had a few lines of exposition that would suddenly be answered by her whole band which included harp, cello and violin with choirlike vocal harmonies, pushing Ms. Mvula toward exultant incantations that gave obsessions a cinematic glow."
