DESCRIPTION:This February\, singer-songwriter Beth Orton leads the Wall of Sounds Artistic Directors Series\, collaborating on new material with 13 specially selected up-and-coming female musicians during a week-long residency at Band on the Wall. On 20th February Beth and the residency participants will perform the fruits of the week&rsquo\;s endeavours\, live at a special finale event.
 Beth Orton&nbsp\;is a BRIT Award-winner and two-time Mercury Prize nominee who has collaborated with Bert Jansch\, Emmylou Harris\, Beck\, and Terry Callier among others. Her masterful songwriting and emotionally evocative vocal style &ndash\; infusing intimate folk reminiscent of Nick Drake and Joni Mitchell with lilting and subtly atmospheric pop flourishes &ndash\; has continuously evolved\, yet always retained an intriguing mix of fragility and transcendence which never fails to move and inspire fans around the world. Her most recent album is 2012&rsquo\;s&nbsp\;Sugaring Season\,&nbsp\;which&nbsp\;Vogue&nbsp\;called&nbsp\;&ldquo\;A beautiful timely album\, full of melancholy.&rdquo\;
 Beth&rsquo\;s wealth of experience in the music industry\, the eclectic mix of genres she works in\, and her experimental approach to creating music all add to what will be a brilliant week and a truly unique performance.
 The Wall of Sounds Artistic Directors Series gives emerging musicians a unique opportunity to experiment\, collaborate and perform\, encouraging new ways of working\, thinking and approaching creativity. This way of connecting and supporting musicians was something that appealed immediately to Beth"\:"
 &ldquo\;I am thrilled to be asked to support and take part in this exciting and important project. Getting the chance to mentor &mdash\; or simply the opportunity to stand as witness to &mdash\; the diverse\, and possibly unheard\, talents of artists from all across the UK fills me with curiosity and some apprehension! &nbsp\;If I&rsquo\;m lucky I will get to share some of what has been passed along to me over the years.&rdquo\;
 We expect another sold out show\, so be quick if you want to get tickets for this truly original\, one-off performance.
 Wall of Sounds is produced by Brighter Sound and hosted by Band on the Wall. Funded by Arts Council England&rsquo\;s Grants for the Arts Fund.
