Music review: Running Up That Hill: A Celebration of Kate Bush
It is a brave artist – or group of artists in this case – who dares to touch the unique catalogue of Kate Bush, one of the most fearsome stylists of the pop age, but also one shrouded in mystique and possibilities, thanks to her exceptionally low live profile, amounting to just one tour and one theatre residency in almost 40 years.Emma Pollock, the gifted musician behind this celebration concert (don’t call it a tribute), originally commissioned by and performed at Aberdeen’s True North festival last autumn, was mindful of the pitfalls but assembled a formidable line-up of guest singers from the folk and indie worlds to interpret favourite songs from the esteemed length and bonkers breadth of her catalogue, many of which Bush has never performed live herself.
