DESCRIPTION:Tickets: $55\n\n“Now relocated to London to launch her career
  in Europe\, Blasko undeniably has the right album to go with. Her voice\,
  pure and understated\, is brought to life by the spartan and sensitive pr
 oduction of Bjorn Yttling (of Peter\, Bjorn And John fame).\nCentrepiece o
 f the album is undoubtedly All I Want\, a poetic piece of self-analysis\, 
 a lonely melody with a Morricone feel. It sets the reflective and self-cri
 tical tone of almost all the songs from the pop of We Won’t Run to the j
 azz-club cool of Bird On A Wire\, cut from the same musical cloth as Fever
 . There are subtle surprises too: No Turning Back stomps along like someth
 ing out of a Kurt Weill score\, while Over And Over ends in a neat conceit
 \, with the interpolation of a snippet of Talking Heads’ Road To Nowhere
 . In total\, it brings to mind Portishead without the beats\, or the origi
 nal\, pop-star Bjork.” \n\n**** David Buckley – MOJO\, UK\n\n“Austra
 lian Sarah Blasko’s third solo album is a perfectly pitched affair\, bal
 ancing introspection with wry eccentricity to conjure up something intimat
 e yet poppy\, delicate yet emotionally full-blooded. Produced in Stockholm
  by Bjorn Yttling (of Peter\, Bjorn & John)\, the understated arrangements
  are brightened by surprising splashes of musical colour. A gentle beauty.
 ”\n\n**** Neil McCormack – THE DAILY TELEGRAPH\, UK\n\n“Sarah Blasko
  was voted the female artist of 2009 in Australia and with this\, her thir
 d album\, she gets her first international release. As Day Follows Night�
 �s stylish\, slightly jazzy pop\, produced by Bjorn Yttling of cool Swedis
 h band Peter\, Bjorn And John\, is impressive enough to make you wonder wh
 at else they’ve got in the Southern Hemisphere that they’re not tellin
 g us about.\n‘Pure elemental songs played on acoustic instruments\,’ i
 s how Sarah Blasko describes As Day Follows Night. It’s a target many ai
 m at but she hits it dead-centre.\n\nCharisma is all that marks out a comp
 elling singer-songwriter from the many average ones and Blasko has a subtl
 e abundance. She has the kind of voice usually described as bewitching but
  she can be unaffected too\, and is at home at the centre of Yttling’s s
 pacious arrangements\, which set bare piano and guitar inside a cavern of 
 percussion and strings.\n\nThere’s drama everywhere\, particularly in th
 e smoky Bird On A Wire and the spaghetti-Western stylings of All I Want. D
 own On Love brings a music-box quality to a delicate lullaby of a tune tha
 t recalls Jeff Buckley’s version of hallelujah\; Over & Over’s marchin
 g drums see it transform gradually into Talking Heads’ Road To Nowhere.
 \n\nTom Waits is the godfather of all such charmed\, slyly experimental mu
 sic\, but equally there’s nothing here that would scare any fan of Norah
  Jones or Madeleine Peyroux.\n\nAs Day Follows Night arrives here without 
 too much fanfare but it deserves plenty. Remarkably appealing and thorough
 ly recommended.”\n\nPurchase your tickets here: http://www.sistic.com.sg
