ANNA CALVI is on fire. Do a quick Google search and you'll see adjectives like hot, incendiary, burning and smokin' thrown round with abandon. Pretty sure it's metaphorical but listen to her eponymous debut or watch any video of her performing and you'll see why. The half-Italian, half-British artist's deliciously dramatic vocals and darkly cinematic instrumentation have won countless plaudits (including a prestigious Mercury Prize nomination) and the praise of Brian Eno who calls her ‘the best thing since Patti Smith', which is not a compliment you'd throw out of bed.
