Beth Orton weaves delicate vocals with piano on Weather Alive

Featuring contributions from Tom Skinner, Alabaster dePlume, Shahzad Ismaily and Tom Herbert.

Beth Orton is releasing a new album, called Weather Alive, via Partisan Records this September.

Orton recorded the album with an old piano she bought in London’s Camden Market, complementing it with her own gentle vocals.

It also features contributions from Alabaster dePlume, Shahzad Ismaily, alongside Tom Skinner, and Tom Herbert — the latter of whom released their Undone: Live At the Crypt album with Dave Okumu on The Vinyl Factory.

Marking her first album in six years, Weather Alive follows the release of Kidsticks on Anti-.
