"'Waiting' is a celebration of moving out of the holding pattern fear keeps us in, showcasing a positive shift in Orton's musical journey."
"'The Ground Above' is split into two halves, with the first part tackling more fragmented terrain and the second section exploring more expansive melodies."
"This marks Beth Orton's ninth album, following the critically acclaimed 'Weather Alive', and features collaborations with artists like Nick Hakim and Tom Skinner."
Beth Orton is set to release her first album in four years, titled 'The Ground Above', on June 26 via Partisan. The album features a new single, 'Waiting', which Orton describes as a celebration of overcoming fear. The album is divided into two halves, with the first part focusing on fragmented sounds and the second on expansive melodies. Orton self-produced the album and collaborated with various artists. She will also embark on a headlining tour starting September 15 in Washington, D.C., covering the U.S., Canada, England, and Scotland.
