Laura Cahen at the IFRU

A reminder that this week sees French artist Laura Cahen perform at the Institut français du Royaume-Uni in London as part of the Night of Ideas event being held there on January 25.

Cahen will be performing in the IFRU's reading room, and will then take part in a question and answer session with the audience.

The Night of Ideas at the Institut français features experts from a wide variety of fields, with debate and discussion in areas from music to science, literature to politics with names as varied and as significant as film maker Ken Loach and astronaut Tin Peake.

Laura Cahen's debut album Nord was released last year, a follow up to her five track EP from 2015.

She operates in a unique space that takes elements of jazz, chanson and folk music to make something quite distinctive with a voice that is as surprising as it is haunting.

The Night of Ideas event takes place on January 25 and is free, but advance booking his required. There's more information here.
