Beth Orton’s new single – a double-A side featuring ‘Shopping Trolley’ and ‘Comfort of Strangers’ - is in stores on Monday 26th June. Both tracks are taken from Orton’s much-acclaimed hit album, ‘Comfort of Strangers’, which was released in February.
The single is available in three formats – seven-inch vinyl, CD and an Enhanced Maxi CD, the latter also featuring the video for ‘Shopping Trolley’ and a new version of ‘Pieces of Sky’, one of the standout songs on the album.
Release of the new single comes as the prelude to Orton’s six-date UK tour in September.
