Susanna And The Magical Orchestra write their own beautiful music, besides their outstanding interpretations of songs by Joy Division, Leonard Cohen and AC/DC among others. This exclusive London-concert will be the first in UK in a year and a half, which the duo is very much looking forward to.

"There is a seductively hypnotic power to her trancelike ability to hold a note, slowing a song's narrative to a single moment of distillation against Qvenild´s mystical electronic washes." - Jazzwise (UK)
"Susanna answers with a performance of such distilled tenderness it´ll stop you in your tracks. " - Mojo (UK)
"A lovely new album of cover songs." - New York Times (US)
"A dolorous delight." - Uncut (UK)
"The 50 greatest covers ever" - The Observer
