Labake Sabbath

Labake Sabbath is a dynamic singer and spoken word artist who is also a lyrical free improviser. She writes music often with playful humour, sometimes about her lived experiences. This includes themes such as navigating public transport with limited mobility, memories of her friends who have passed on and celebrations of The Gate where she makes strong visual art as well as her music. Her live show incorporates this visual art and is as sincere and heartfelt as it is humorous. Her recent collaboration with Wayne from The Gate, who makes distinct drones on keys, brings in a frank and bewitching spoken word aspect to her work.

'There are 17 songs on the debut album by Labake Sabbath, but despite this relative glut and its variable styles, it flies by with a keen balance of emotion and humour, personal and political.' — Noel Gardner, The Quietus
