More Info
Comfort of Strangers is the fourth studio album by Beth Orton, released in February 2006 through Astralwerks and EMI. Recorded at Sear Sound Studio in New York City, it captures a leaner, more intimate side of Orton’s writing and performance.
Moving further away from the trip-hop and folktronica textures of her earlier work, Comfort of Strangers leans into raw, minimalist folk-rock arrangements. The result is an organic, emotionally direct record that lets Beth Orton’s songwriting sit right at the centre.
