[{"text_idx": "#000014", "text": "Cardiff-based Welsh singer-songwriter Cara Ludlow has been writing and performing music for over a decade, aged only 24 years old. Combining gently poetic lyricism and deftly finger-picked guitar, her compositions are built on the firm foundations of folk and roots, recalling the greats from Joni Mitchell and Suzanne Vega to Kate Bush, but with an authenticity that\u2019s wholly her own."}, {"text_idx": "#000015", "text": "She\u2019s performed her songs across Britain and Europe, from the heart of rural Wales and Devon to London and Amsterdam. Her serene, perceptive storytelling has a communal language, unhurried and entirely within its own ecosystem. She\u2019s currently working on her debut EP, Hyperion."}]
