Imogen Halsey - Take my hand

  The word 'serendipity' comes to mind as I listen to this album, for the fourth time. The first time was on my drive up to London for Halsey's album launch event, for which I had a ticket and was going primarily to watch my friend Chloe playing support. As it turned out, Chloe was unwell and as I was already going, she asked if I might be able to step in and play a set on her behalf, to which I gratefully accepted (I mean, who wouldn't want to play a half hour of songs on a beautiful grand piano on a stage lit with my two favourite colours, teal and purple?!). So I ended up actually playing support for Halsey's album launch, and that was where I heard these songs for the second time.  Now this is a band who have either rehearsed together so many times, or they all know each other and the songs so well that on coming together, they've smashed it out the park, so spot on to the record. I felt honoured to be included in such a line up, with these clearly classical...
