When she and Robin Guthrie met, the fusion of her solidly independent project and his art and wisdom exploded into the most original sound to hit the scene in a long time. One can hear all of Annie’s influences synthesized into this album. She is a lover of Brit Rock and spent years learning the music of The Beatles, David Bowie, Tori Amos and
