Published Jan. 21, 2016

(Belpid Records) Blues Hall of Fame songwriter and bassist Madden releases her second CD of all-original dark, minor key 1980's analogue-recorded pop/rock from London and New York City. The album consists of 13 all-original tracks, featuring the guitar of Jon Gordon, Jon Paris, Freddie Katz and Joe Pisciotta. The album drew rave reviews from Melody Maker, Billboard, and the NME. Includes live recordings from her earliest performances, some dark poetic 8-track home demos, and a rare Jamaican radio dub-mix of one of her first compositions.
