Biography
Gifted Welsh singer/songwriter Louise Latham's evocative debut album Reclaimed was released on the 25th of June to critial acclaim.
It's hard to believe that only 12 month ago Louise had contemplated giving up on her musical career untill she met her present Dutch manager Maarten Sol. Having seen Louise perform at a venue in Holland, Maarten advised Louise not to give up and together they created a fresh, new and successful collaboration.
Since the album's release Louise's career is gaining substantial momentum in the UK and overseas. Reclaimed is enjoying significant airplay throughout the UK, North America, China, Australia, Germany, Switzerland, South Africa and Peru. In terms of film soundtracks, Old Soul has been signed to a British independent film company.
Reclaimed then moved on to become Album of The Month on Hazefm, Canada's largest commercial online radio station. Later in the year Reclaimed was voted Top 50 Albums of 2012 by UK's independent press agency New Sound Wales.
Commenting on Louise's success BBC Radio Wales presenter Alan Thompson referred to her as being "One of the best Welsh singer/songwriters of our time ".
Louise, an English Literature graduate from Royal Holloway University of London took her first steps into writing her own songs during her time at university. This resulted into Fatuma, a song championed by award winning songwriter Tommy Sands on his Northern Irish radio show.
The song laid the foundation for a lot of the themes that would inform her writing, personal storytelling, human politics, struggle, honesty, hope, dreams and innocence.
Reclaimed was finally masterminded by Grammy nominee producer/mixer Jeremy Wheatley. The result is a sound that branches off in a myriad of wonderful directions such as the country-esque Melt Me Down Like Chocolate, the soaring alt-pop of Erase Me the atmospherics and quiet majesty of Together Tonight to the minimalist outpouring of emotion of Reclaimed itself.
And then there's Louise's voice - pure, ethereal, intense, profoundly moving. This is an aural landscape made visible by Reclaimed, an alluring collection whose warmth and humanity is a balm in austere times.
