Performer Notes
  • New Zealand songstress Ladyhawke makes what can best be described as Euro-American disco-party trash. This multi-instrumentalist clearly grew up playing Stevie Nicks in the mirror over a soundtrack of '70s funk and '80s freestyle pop. Here, the finest moments come on "Love Don't Live Here," which re-imagines classic Heart as fronted by a more overtly cooing seductress, and "Paris Is Burning," where Ladyhawke teases through the chorus in its eponymous city's native tongue. Fun is the operating word on this self-titled full-length, and it's achieved by balancing the catchy and current with the warm embrace of nostalgia.

Professional Reviews
Spin (p.90) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Through the digital wizardry and pumping beats, you can hear an unabashedly heartfelt and occasionally vulnerable artist."

Clash (magazine) (p.86) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Her eponymous debut is the closest thing to 'Betty Davis Eyes' or 'Stand Back' recorded for our generation..."

4.0 out of 5 based on 2 reviews. 4 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 09/02/2009

You have to feel somewhat proud when New Zealand music breaks out to be recognised internationally. Ladyhawke's unique alternative funk pop music is something new yet fitting for the current trends. It's definitely fun and playful music, something you can imagine being played at parties that go long into the early hours of the morning.
