New album tour from Frome-based rock n’ roll sound healer Tallulah Rendall cooks up a vitalising mix of sonic vibrations, live performance and ecstatic dance.
Spirited rock singer turned sound therapist, Tallulah Rendall, takes to the road with her band, from Wednesday 27th March to Sunday 7th April, to celebrate the launch of her landmark new album The Liminal.
Uniquely bridging the worlds of rock, electronica and healing, The Liminal tour will include The Steiner Academy in Frome (30th March), and include Beaulieu Tree House in the New Forest (27th March), The Hatch in Kingsbridge, Devon (30th March), Fyfe Hall in Bristol (4th April), and The Tabernacle in West London (6th April).
Preceding the tour, comes the release of Radiate – the hotly anticipated first single from the album, – via iTunes and Tallulah’s website. This euphoric ode to love, blending angelic vocals, elegant electronica, crashing gongs and harmonic Himalayan singing bowls, gives a nod to the liminal: the meditative space she connects to for her creativity.
Tallulah explains, “Radiate encapsulates my vision of weaving anthemic melodies with sacred sounds whilst also lyrically introducing some of the fundamental concepts behind The Liminal.
She defines the ‘liminal’ as “the energetic, unquantifiable space” she accesses through her meditation, qi gong and sound healing practices – and which brings a nurturing sense of harmony and wellbeing to her life.
To achieve this, she has cooked up an immersive, sensory experience for her series of evening concerts, where like a shamanic guide, she will transport her audience from deep stillness via an opening sound bath, into an enlivening live performance of the album.
Launching on Thursday 4 April, The Liminal is Tallulah’s fourth crowd-funded album, which was co-produced with acclaimed Berlin producer Aaron Ahrends. Drawing on her experience of transforming her life after a challenging four-year period of love, loss and burn out, the album’s collection of uplifting lyrical anthems were created to inspire and heal, abetted by the sonic reverberations of her gongs and singing bowls.
Extolled by Shirley Bassey for her “wonderful voice,” Tallulah is known for her trailblazing spirit. Distinct from any other artist, she releases her albums within beautifully illustrated hardcover books which share the song lyrics and the story behind the album – and in the case of The Liminal – stunning photos by Japanese photographer Akio Fukushima reflecting the unique essence of each song (this video provides a sneak preview).
The first musician to undertake Living Room Tours across the UK, Talllulah was also one of the first UK artists to introduce crowdfunding in 2006 with her first EP Without Time. She has since crowdfunded, released and toured three albums worldwide: Libellus (2009), Alive (2011 and The Banshee And The Moon (2014).
Having integrated her healing journey into her music and work as a sound therapist, Tallulah now travels widely presenting her wild singing and creativity workshops, sound journeys and one-to-one sound therapy sessions.
