Title: Ode to the Unknown Factory Worker

Ode to the Unknown Factory Worker, revisits many themes from the African American tradition. A spontaneous comeback for the New Zealand-born singer and pianist, Leila Adu, who has arranged entirely on her own the parts of her new album. Symptomatic of her evolution, the album-the fourth in her portfolio-uses a back to the basics approach. In between the lines of Leila's intimate sound, she speaks the language of prewar Blues and truly eclectic Folk-Pop, but Adu's unique talent lies in her ability to bring a Pop sensibility into tracks like "Martian Raft" and "A Moment of Peace", taking potentially elitist music into the popular sphere. Recorded in Rome for Rai Radio, Ode to the Unknown Factory Worker, is the first step in a journey towards a new artistic folklore that revisits over a century of traditions.
