SECRET SYMPHONY, Katie Melua's fifth studio album, is an exquisite collection of songs that perfectly showcases her unique, instantly recognisable voice. “On this record I simply wanted to find beautiful songs and to really sing my heart out”, she says.
The collection include songs from Françoise Hardy, Ron Sexsmith, Jimmie Cox and Fran Healy, as well as Katie's own song ‘Forgetting All My Troubles’. She also teams up with manager and producer Mike Batt on several tracks.
With Batt at the production helm Katie returned to Air Studios in London where she recorded her previous album THE HOUSE. The result is a collaboration that imbues the songs with a distinct personality that could only be the work of this creative team. The record allows Katie's distinctive voice and the songs to truly shine.
At the age of nineteen Katie Melua released her debut album CALL OFF THE SEARCH in 2003, since then Katie has secured her place as one of Britian's most successful artists of the new millennium.
