Ines Loubet solo (voice/ guitar):
On tour across the UK, Ines will perform a special solo show at FITR which promises to be captivating; her personal blend of her heritage in her music, and informed yet playful approach to song, doesn't sound much like anyone other than herself and has to be experienced.
'Inês Loubet is considered to be one of London's most exciting multi-instrumentalists and singers and her original compositions navigate through the influences of Jazz, vibrant latin-grooves and her native language, Portuguese. Loubet graduated with distinction from the prestigious Guildhall School of Music having studied under the guidance of Nia Lynn and Brigitte Beraha. . Loubet has been invited to perform solo at Union Chapel in London and to perform at O2 Shepherds Bush to open for Brazilian legend Gilberto Gil. She is also a Jazz Studies Professor at Guildhall School of Music and Leeds College of Music.'

“Here, as in other instances on the record, Loubet’s voice is truly an instrument in itself, and her harmonies are almost unsettlingly pure.” - Dan Carabine, The Line of Best Fit
