‘Life Changes Everything Changes Life’

'Life Changes Everything Changes Life' is the new album by Welsh singer-songwriter Rachel Mari Kimber out on the 13th June.

Recorded in both Wales and the US, the album has been written, arranged and produced and for the most part performed by this highly talented multi instrumentalist, singer/ songwriter.

'Life Changes' is a supremely assured collection of songs that are sometimes strident, thoughtful, richly melodic and always entertaining. Like all truly fine albums, the music creates a unique and distinctive world that is very much of its own. From the edgy pop of 'City Life' and Time Flies', by way of the insidiously catchy 'Will to Live' and the appealingly vulnerable 'Truth Hurts,' RMK presents a distinctive lyrical viewpoint meshed to a striking gift for a winning melody that puts her firmly in the forefront of the current crop of contemporary British female artistes

'Life Changes' bears the influential mark of the likes of Tori Amos, Joni Mitchell Alanis Morrisette and Sheryl Crow, but RMK proves throughout that she is nothing less than a fully-formed artist in her own right, creating an incisive range of contrasting moods and musical textures that are a constant delight, absorbing, enthralling, and firmly contemporary. The album was produced by RMK and mixed by John Brand, whose production résumé includes albums by artists as diverse as Aztec Camera, The Waterboys, The Cult & Stereophonics, who he also managed. Between the two, a fresh and invigorating sonic template is constructed that allows RMK's sharply-honed lyrical values to shine. This is illustrated to winning effect on the dreamy, pastoral and vaguely narcotic 'Bubble Trouble,' with its crisp acoustic guitar textures and haunting cello work (played by RMK, of course!).
