Her singing is viscerally powerful, her guitar playing funky and relentless, her songs amazingly diverse. If anyone wants to check out how powerful her lungs are, go to www.kashmirklub.com, then click on KREW, choose her singing A Kiss So Light, light fuse and retire. She also has the distinction (dubious as it is - she's not too keen to advertise this) of having co-written and made the first recording of one of Celine Dion's biggest hits, Falling into you. She also wrote The Consequences Of Falling, lead song from kd lang's last album. There was also the marvellously vitriolic Anna Page, the heartrending Jamie Lawson, and the totally wonderful Annabel Lamb. And a new face to me was the extraordinary Chyna Lee, who looks like Skin from Skunk Anansie and has a stunning voice, slightly reminiscent of Lucinda Williams. It was quite a night!
