Lettie has been described as a \u201cmemory collector\u201d, obsessed with collecting pieces of the past in the forms of books, postcards, second hand shop finds and newspaper clippings. <\/p>\n<p>This memory collecting and accompanying sense of nostalgia is clearly seen in &#8221;Good Fortune, Bad Weather&#8221;, which is filled with haunting melodies, lyrics that obsess over the past and classic synth sounds.  All this is wrapped up in a modern electro-pop shell.<\/p>\n<p>As well as Lettie, the album has a number of other talented musicians performing on it including Danny Blume, Zachary Alford (Bowie, Springsteen, Stefani), Sara Lee (League of Gentleman, B52s, Gang of Four, Ani diFranco), D.
