Belleruche - The Express (2008)

The British trio Belleruche has released their sophomore album, The Express, building upon the critical and commercial success of their debut, Turntable Soul Music. The ensemble, featuring a DJ, a guitarist, and a lead vocalist, has transitioned toward a rawer, blues-oriented aesthetic while maintaining their signature "handmade hip-hop soul" style. The record is distinguished by its eclecticism, the integration of vinyl textures, and a focus on compelling original melodies. The group has solidified its international standing through extensive airplay on major global radio stations and performances at prestigious venues such as Glastonbury and the Sydney Opera House. Concurrently, vocalist Kathrin deBoer continues to expand her professional profile through collaborations with prominent electronic artists, including Bonobo and DJ Vadim.
