Beth Orton shares new track 'Fractals'

With her highly-anticipated new album now just a few weeks away, Beth Orton has dropped the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Fractals' features jazz poet Alabaster dePlume on saxophone, The Smile drummer Tom Skinner, multi-instrumentalist Shahzad Ismaily, and Mercury Prize-nominated bassist Tom Herbert of The Invisible, and follows on from the previously shared 'Friday Night', 'Forever Young', and the record's title-track in previewing her new LP 'Weather Alive', which is out on the 23rd September via Partisan Records.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, “The track is a beautiful example of the nature of collaboration, where people come in as they are. You’re hearing the first take. I would never have been able to conjure that music without these musicians.”
