Rita Ro – “Ghost Of Love”
Rita Ro is a songwriter and experimental artist from Mexico City, now based in London. Her début album ‘Renaissance’ is darkly intimate, delicate at times but with it’s roots in alternative rock. A self taught musician, her use of overdubbed live drums and otherworldly sounds gives this album a diverse, original and haunting quality. It’s available through her website.

Julie, Wobble and Levene made a great album! They would be such a tight unit if they did a tour. This is how PiL should have been, fresh sounds, new ideas and modern.
Hi Tony – I agree! So good to hear Wobble working closely with a writer; it’s more focussed than his solo stuff. I don’t remember if they mentioned a tour, but they were clearly both very enthusiastic about the collaboration.
cheers; Nick.
