Laura-Mary Carter – Bye Bye Jackie
Acclaimed guitarist and songwriter Laura-Mary Carter, best known as one half of the UK alternative duo Blood Red Shoes, releases her debut solo album, Bye Bye Jackie.
Bye Bye Jackie includes the previously released singles “June Gloom” and “Four Letter Words.”
The single follows on from “June Gloom”, Carter’s atmospheric first offering from Bye Bye Jackie, which featured a stormy guitar contribution from Lee Kiernan (IDLES) and earned praise for its raw honesty and emotional immediacy. Together, the two tracks set the tone for an album that balances heartbreak with humour, intimacy with intensity.
Carter will showcase Bye Bye Jackie on the The Bye Bye Jackie Tour, an extensive run of headline shows across the UK and Europe this winter.
