The Anchoress
The Anchoress is the artistic alias of Welsh multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer Catherine Anne Davies. Known for her lush, genre-blending alt-pop and art-rock sensibilities, she crafts music that’s both intellectually sharp and emotionally raw. Her 2021 sophomore album *The Art of Losing* (and its *Expanded Edition*) earned critical acclaim for its exploration of grief and resilience, featuring collaborations with members of Manic Street Preachers and Simple Minds. A classically trained pianist with a PhD in literature, Davies often infuses her work with literary references and biting wit, as heard in her haunting covers like *Love Will Tear Us Apart* and *Enjoy the Silence*.
Beyond her solo work, she’s a sought-after collaborator (working with artists like Bernard Butler) and a fierce advocate for women in music production. The Anchoress keeps fans on their toes with unexpected remixes, multilingual releases (*Let It Hurt*’s French version), and a flair for reimagining classics while maintaining a sound that’s unmistakably her own.
