Katie Melua - Album No. 8

Album No. 8 is the eighth studio album by Georgian British jazz pop singer songwriter Katie Melua, released in October 2020 via BMG.

One of the UK’s best-selling female recording artists of all time, Katie Melua returns with Album No. 8. A gloriously cinematic exploration of love, with lyrics written by Katie Melua, and production by Leo Abrahams.

Album No. 8 is a true tour-de-force of artistic and lyrical maturity. This is songcraft at its finest, with Melua’s faultless performance completely inhabiting the album, and the musical presentation and arrangements expertly executed by Abrahams, co-composer Sam Dixon, and mixers Cameron Craig and Luke Potashnick.

Melua started writing and recording the album when she was in the process of separating from her estranged husband. “We are both perfectionists,” Melua stated. “So we both really wanted to ‘get it right’. But in the end, I think we both accepted it was over and decided to perfect the art of letting go. I looked to nature for support and saw the falling leaves as part of a beautiful cycle."

The album has been met with universal acclaim from music critics and two singles have been released from the album “A Love Like That” and “Airtime”.

This album is on black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with an exclusive poster, pressed in Europe via BMG.
