eve''s exile review:
"A beautifully haunting album that takes you on lyrical and melodic journeys beyond the boundaries of your soul. The raw nature of the emotions which Ladas evokes is balanced with the exquisite detail of her music. Your heart
will pound, a smile will come to your face at the same time as a tear falls. It will resonate through your heart and mind."
Robert Delamere - British Theatre and Film Director.
Debbie Ladas is an award winning songwriter from San Francisco. A solo artist, and one half of the acoustic duo, "sweet harriet", she has won multiple "best song" awards from the Northern Californian Songwriters Association, and the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS). With her big voice, and big guitar she is a powerful and moving performer. Her style is a mix of rock, folk, and pop. Using a variety of guitar tunings and rhythms, she combines catchy melodies with evocative lyrics, for a sound all her own. Her influences include Shawn Colvin, Nanci Griffith, Indigo Girls, Tracy Chapman, the Beatles, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, and Joni Mitchell.
Debbie Ladas started piano at six, but found her love to be the acoustic guitar, which she picked up during her teenage years. Inspired by folk and country artists initially, her first professional appearance was in Glasgow, Scotland, (Debbie''s home town) in 1990, with the band "Don''t Talk". When she moved to California in 1996, she hooked up with the California Coast Music Club (CCMC) and was introduced to Katie Brady, fellow songwriter and lead singer of the band, "Crackerjack Tattoo" at a local jam session. History was made that day. They went on to form the highly successful duo, "sweet harriet", playing around the San Francisco Bay Area. They have signed a publishing deal for their material, and continue to perform occasionally as "sweet harriet", in addition to each developing their own solo careers.
Debbie Ladas is a captivating live performer and has been playing in coffee shops and clubs in the both San Francisco Bay Area and London since 1996. She recorded her first e.p. in London in 2000, called "eve''s exile" and has just completed her full length album, "Cocktail Party" in Palo Alto, California in January, 2002.
