Hello . . .
"Hello everyone. All my latest news, music and stuff is here. My most recent album called 'Love And Its Opposite' came out in May 2010. It's on my partner Ben Watt's Strange Feeling Records - sister imprint to his Buzzin' Fly label. In North America it's out on the very lovely Merge Records. I'm also chatting daily with fans on my Facebook and Twitter pages, so come and say hello."
Love Tracey xox

// 2 Oct 2011: 19h25 GMT // Tracey covers The xx on new EP In the summer of 2010 Mercury Music Prize winners (and Everything But The Girl fans) The xx asked Tracey Thorn and her long-time partner in EBTG Ben Watt (also Strange Feeling label boss) to record a track from the The xx's debut album for a special compilation the band were commissioning of covers of the album's songs by their favourite artists. Unfortunately the project fell apart a few months later for numerous logistical reasons (not least the second wind breathed into the original album by the Mercury Prize victory) but not before Tracey had sung a new version of one the album most beautiful tracks, 'Night Time'. The track gathered dust for a few months but it is rightfully seeing the light of day on a new EP from Tracey Thorn called the 'Night Time EP', released on Strange Feeling on October 31, much to the delight of all concerned. The flip side will feature new mixes of 'Swimming' from 'Love And Its Opposite'. Audio clips soon.
