SOLD OUT

This is a special show to celebrate the launch of the first single to be taken from the new album 'Lloyd I’m Ready To Be Heartbroken', out on May 15th on Elefant Records.

In Autumn 2005, Camera Obscura travelled from Glasgow to Stockholm to begin work on a new album with acclaimed producer Jari Haapalainen (The Concretes, Ed Harcourt, International (Noise) Conspiracy). Tonight's show will reveal the fruits of their labours. Influenced by a wide variety of heroes - from Jimmy Webb to Lloyd Cole, from Connie Francis to Skeeter Davis, from the Supremes to David Lynch - lead singer/songwriter Traceyanne Campbell and crew have assembled a remarkable batch of new songs. Decidedly upbeat and catchy, while also beautifully romantic, quiet and reflective, the new album, "Let's Get Out Of This Country" (out in June on Elefant) is the sound of a wonderful young band just hitting their stride.
