<a href="https://www.roughtrade.com/artist/leonie-pernet">Léonie Pernet</a> will be live in-store at <a href="https://www.roughtrade.com/gb/events/rough-trade-east-leonie-pernet">Rough Trade East</a> to perform tracks from her new album 'Crave'

Crave, the debut album from French musician and songwriter Leonie Pernet, released on InFiné. Written and recorded in Paris Crave’s eleven tracks showcase Pernet’s talent for teaming hypnotic melodies and sometimes challenging sonics – the result an impressive and diverse body of work. Pianist, arranger, singer and drummer (as discovered in Yuksek’s band) Pernet released her first EP on Kill The DJ setting the template for Crave and her flair for cinematographic compositions. Embracing influences ranging from Klaus Nomi, Jeanne Moreau and Caribou, Pernet’s taps into the poetry of Francois de Malherbe providing the lyrics to Rose and discusses the anxiety of being in Arabic on the sublime Auaati. After a stormy schooling Pernet studied the sacred art of liturgical music at university while organising her first club nights, a combination which inspired an active political conscience and poetry via mixes – Mix pour tous, Mix debout and Mix d’entre deux tours which are daily mixes of electro scratching, precisely aimed rants and mystical wells of light – similar to the record she’s given birth to. A record of restlessness, born out of solitude and showcasing Pernet’s adventurous spirit Crave is, as the title suggests, of oppressive desire, a clawing at the shadows and shafts of light and as spacious as a place of worship. Amen to that…….
