• Izzi Manfredi from The Preatures goes full circle

  Isabella 'Izzi' Manfredi was born to be a frontwoman. As lead singer for The Preatures, she brought rock n roll swagger and brilliant pop songwriting to the scene, when they arrived in the 2010’s. They called it a day in 2020, but recently decided to reform and celebrate that brilliant debut album Blue Planet Eyes. It was the catalyst to invite Izzi in to Take 5, and hear about the music that had been the foundations and moulded around her ever-evolving existence.Robert Plant & Alison Krauss - Gone Gone Gone (Done Moved On)Cat Power - RuinThe Angels  - Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again (live) Christine Anu - Island HomeCharli xcx & Bon Iver - I think about it all the time featuring bon iver
