Ketevan

Description

Ten years after the success of 'Call Off The Search', her debut album that made her known worldwide, Katie Melua presents her sixth studio album. Titled "KETEVAN", her Georgian first name, the album will be available on September 16, the day of her 29th birthday. Born in Georgia, Katie grew up between Belfast and Surrey, then studied at the Brit School in South London before signing a contract with the independent label Dramatico. Following the hit 'The Closest Thing To Crazy' in 2003 and the subsequent album 'Piece By Piece', featuring the single 'Nine Million Bicycles', she won over international audiences and became the best-selling British female artist in the world. Her subsequent albums, 'Pictures', 'The House', and 'Secret Symphony' in 2012, further confirmed her status as a popular artist with a unique voice and a catalog of distinctive and irresistible songs. Katie Melua has sold 11 million albums, 1 million concert tickets, and achieved 56 platinum records. For this album, Katie reunites with Mike Batt, her longest-standing collaborator, and also embarks on new collaborations with Mike's son, Luke (who co-produced the album), and Toby Jepson. "It's great to be back in the studio with Mike, one of the greatest songwriters today, who is behind some timeless songs; and also to get back to writing. Luke and Toby brought a new dynamic to the studio... I love feeling the excitement that comes when you manage to bring the right people together at the right time."
