Welsh multi-disciplinary artist and producer Cate Le Bon’s work has long defied categorization—an architect of sound who builds emotional landscapes from abstraction, texture, and tone.
Over six albums, including the Mercury Prize-nominated Reward and the critically acclaimed Pompeii, she has honed a singular voice: part surrealist, part sculptor, always attuned to the emotional undercurrents that shape her art. Her production credits—spanning Wilco, Horsegirl, and St. Vincent—reflect a deep trust in her ability to transform sonic environments into intimate, idiosyncratic worlds.
Le Bon’s creative path has been shaped by both solitude and collaboration. Her seventh album, Michelangelo Dying, emerges from a place of raw emotion and reluctant vulnerability. A vivid grieving of a fantasy, the album is a shimmering song cycle that picks at wounds even as it tries to preserve them—an iridescent, layered meditation on love, loss, and the unknowable self.
