Win a double pass to Beth Orton at Sydney Festival!
While mixing folk music and electronics has become one of the musical trends of the 21st Century, Beth Orton has been exploring this arena since the mid-1990s.
She was first heard as a languid vocalist on tracks by dance producer William Orbit before her Mercury Prize-nominated debut album, Trailer Park, and 1999's Central Reservation explored the nexus between city rhythms and rural tones.
As the new genre of folktronica emerged in her wake, Orton left the electronics to delve deeper into the English folk music she had always loved, finding a bridge between Sandy Denny, Carole King and the bruising honesty of modern songwriters.
After a five-year absence from Australia, and in anticipation of her soon-to-be released album on Anti- Records, Orton plays in the intimate space of City Recital Hall.
