“A great, dark classic pop song” - Steve Lamacq, BBC 6Music

“Imperious vocals…oddball & accessible.” - 20 tracks you have to hear this week, NME
 
“What happened to Mansun's Paul Draper? Well, he's producing The Anchoress and the results are quite something” – CLASH

‘What Goes Around’ is the debut limited edition single from The Anchoress - a new project from Welsh London-based multi-instrumentalist Catherine Anne Davies, co-produced with Paul Draper. Set for release 5th May 2014 as a limited edition of 500 clear heavyweight vinyl (which sold out in 24 hours on preorder) via the prestigious Too Pure label (PJ Harvey, Stereolab, Hookworms), ‘What Goes Around’ is the first taste of The Anchoress’ forthcoming debut album and is a refreshing blast of “revenge pop”, with angular guitars and barbed lyrics framing this anthem about karmic balance.

‘What Goes Around’ will be released on May 5th 2014 via TOO PURE.
