37 years after the release of her multi-million selling debut album Ancient Heart Tanita Tikaram releases the sequel entitled LIAR (Love Isn’t A Right). The long-awaited new album reveals the emotional and societal differences between the woman Tanita was at just 18 when she made to the woman she is today, taking in four decades of life experience.
Her first album in almost a decade, is an album of haunting beauty and exquisite musicianship underplaying her unique voice that tells a masterful story of emotional, political and personal truths. When it was released in 1988, the multi-million selling Ancient Heart was the story of an uncertain 18-year-old brown gay woman living in middle England feeling like a stranger in her own home. Almost 40 years later that same woman, now feeling like a stranger in her own country as politics and society become more divisive.
LIAR (Love Is A Right) is a full circle moment: a comment on community and its importance for all our futures and the perfect accompaniment to her classic breakthrough.
