Lou Rhodes is the lead vocalist of chilled downtempo outfit Lamb who are famous for blending trip hop with jazz and elements of drum and bass. Rhodes’ solo work however is more organic and rooted in folk music.
Her 2006 debut solo album entitled “Beloved One” was shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize. Rhodes’ second album, Bloom, was released in October 2007.
Lou Rhodes also runs Infinite Bloom records which releases her own work.
There is a certain strength found in stillness—a self-possessed beauty that conveys a wealth of emotion without an excess of movement. It’s within this patient, colorful space that singer Lou Rhodes makes her presence felt. As one-half of Lamb, one of the most soulful, vibrant and musically elaborate bands of the last ten years, Rhodes composed intimate meditations on sensuality, longing, struggle, dedication, and the humbling power of true love. Partner Andrew Barlow complemented her vocals with rich topographies of sound, fusing organic instrumentation with off-time beats and hard quantized samples to create a push-pull aura of reservation and intricacy. But after their split following the release of 2004’s Between Darkness and Wonder, Rhodes set off on a new path—one devoid of the frictions and frustrations she had grown all too accustomed to living with.
