Following her Mercury
Music Prize nomination, Independiente-signed singer/songwriter
Martina Topley-Bird releases Anything, the second
single to be lifted from her critically acclaimed debut album,
Quixotic, on September 1st.
A stripped back, sensuous track, Anything
perfectly showcases Martinas unique vocal style. Laid-back
yet emotional, this bewitching song is set to be one of the
tracks of the summer. The single features a dvd of the stunning
video, directed by renowned promo maker Floria Sigismondi,
and a powerful remix by Vanden Plas.
Four years in the making and featuring production
credits from the likes of David Holmes (Too Tough To
Die) and Tricky (Ragga), Quixotic
also contains string arrangements from David Arnold (Of James
Bond and Bjork fame) on Days Of A Gun and guitars
by Josh Homme and backing vocals by Mark Lanegan from Queens
of the Stone Age on debut single Need One.
The acclaim for Quixotic has already been
widespread:
'original and authentic as anything youll
hear this year-with its mix of soul, jazz, old time folk and
vintage blues
this is an astonishing record
