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.
