Beth Orton Biography
Singer/songwriter Beth Orton combined the passionate beauty of
the acoustic folk tradition with the electronic beats of trip-hop to
create a fresh, distinct fusion of roots and rhythm. Born in Norwich,
England in December 1970, Orton debuted as one half of the duo Spill, a
one-off project with William Orbit which released a cover of John
Martyn's Don't Wanna Know About Evil. She continued working with
Orbit on his 1993 LP Strange Cargo 3, co-writing and singing the track
Water From a Vine Leaf before appearing with the group Red Snapper on
their first singles Snapper and In Deep. In 1995 Orton teamed with
the Chemical Brothers for Alive: Alone, the ultimate track on their
Exit Planet Dust LP. After assembling a backing band comprised of
double bassist Ali Friend, guitarist Ted Barnes, keyboardist Lee
Spencer and drummer Wildcat Will, she finally issued her 1996 debut EP
She Cries Your Name; her stunning full-length bow Trailer Park,
produced in part by Andrew Weatherall, followed later in the year. In
1997, Orton released the superb Best Bit EP, a move towards a more
organic, soulful sound highlighted by a pair of duets with folk-jazz
legend Terry Callier; the full-length Central Reservation followed in
1999. Stolen Car was a moderate hit among college radio and tours
across the U.S. were also successful. Three years later, Orton emerged
refreshed with her third album Daybreaker. This time around, she
collaborated with ex-Whiskeytown frontman Ryan Adams and the Chemical
Brothers. In early 2006, Orton released her fourth album, Comfort of
Strangers. The 14-song set was recorded in two weeks with producer Jim
O'Rourke. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
