Acclaimed British singer-songwriter Beth Orton has signed to Astralwerks Records for North America. Orton is currently working on new material for a new album, which is due early next year.
The album will be Orton's third and first since the 1998's BMG-distributed Central Reservation. (Her full-length debut was Trailer Park.)
Orton is still signed to Heavenly Recordings in the U.K. Astralwerks and Heavenly first teamed up last year to release the Doves' debut Lost Souls.
