DESCRIPTION TRACK LIST
Despite much of the material on Dicte's ninth solo album being written after her mother's passing, a spirited, optimistic, and audacious songwriter meets us with open arms on Let's Escape. The ten new songs are a testament to a singer-songwriter arriving at an age where she dares to say - and sing - things without compromise.

As the music dances elegantly between pensive gems and powerful incendiary bursts, the 57-year-old songstress explores themes covering everything from the beginning to the end of life - most importantly, what happens in between, which we should all make the most of, while we can.

'My new album is about learning to soar and live strong - creating a life where you take destiny into your own hands. A life where you don't submit to other people’s notions of love and happiness.'

Together with producer Kasper Rasmussen and an ace team including guest musicians Mika Vand-borg, Mads Reinhold, Kasper Tranberg, and Mads Hyhne, Dicte has created an album that draws on the influence of musical luminaries she grew up with in the 1970s.  Dicte describes Let's Escape as standing on the shoulders of classics like Bowie's Scary Monsters, Stevie Wonder's Hotter Than July, and Blondie's Parallel Lines.
