Dear Companion is an

excellent album. It's better than any of The Espers albums for me. Should be a good gig, especially seeing it that it's at The Luminaire.

Too easy.

But yeah, her solo album is really good. Really grown on me recently after being initially a bit non-plussed by it. Might try and make the Brighton show.
