Hear former Cocteau Twins singer Elizabeth Fraser's first original song in 13 years.
— Fraser’s first new original music in 13 years — this summer. “Golden Air,” the first song the duo is releasing, perfectly captures the dreamy aesthetic Fraser helped pioneer in the Eighties, as she flexes her soprano in both catchy and avant-garde ways over thick textures of baroque pop. Genesis’ Steve Hackett plays some of the guitar on the song. The physical release of the five-track, eponymous EP, will come out June 18 for Record Store Day, with a digital release following in July.
The EP came about after Anohni invited Fraser and Reece to perform at the Meltdown Festival in 2012. Since then Fraser has joined Reece on the road for Massive Attack’s Mezzanine XXI tour and has recoded with Jonsi, Sam Lee, and Oneohtrix Point Never. Fraser and Reece also collaborated on the music for the British series“I wasn’t personally influenced by any specific thing,” Fraser said in a statement about the music. “I’m too insecure about listening to other artists.
