Peng records are proud to present their newest member to the family, "Ladybird". She needs no major introduction as she is already a well established soulful house music singer, with the classics 'Believe' (Soldiers Of Twilight), 'My Precious Thing' (with Llorca), 'It's Magic' (with The Rurals) and many others under her belt. For her solo project she's teamed up with Andy Compton, and his Rurals crew to come up with a unique and jazzy soulful album. Blending her beautiful voice with the organic elements of guitars, organs, fender rhodes and brass, has resulted in a classic soundtrack which is named simply "Ladybird"!
