ABOUT THIS ITEM

This is the debut album from one of the most celebrated singers of rock’s recent history, Laetitia Sadier.

In addition to her long history with Stereolab, Laetitia's music has also been heard over the course of three albums with her band Monade.

For "The Trip" Laetitia packed a band sound, with musical collaborators including Americans Rebecca Gates, Richard Swift and April March and French musicians Julien Gasc and Emmanuel Mario (who also collaborated on the final Monade album "Monstre Cosmic").

The band sound was conceived with a spare touch in mind. It was Laetitia’s intention not to ‘overload or layer’ the music on the new record too much. 'It was made with this principle in mind, maybe as a reaction to an ever-increasingly busy world and a natural need for stillness. There are layers, particularly to the vocals, but I feel I’ve pulled off the intent of simplicity'.
