Times Calendar mention, 4/14/02 Pop Eye By Steve Hochman American(ish) Girl: Beth Orton's voice has been compared to that of Sandy Denny, and her mix of melodic ballad styles and electronic touches has been considered the successor to the English folk-rock tradition. But Orton's upcoming album, "Daybreaker," due from Astralwerks Records in June, has a distinct Americana cast, with Orton dueting with Emmylou Harris and Ryan Adams, who wrote the music for one song. "It feels like Nashville," says Orton, although the album was recorded in London. "I don't know why. It's a complete coincidence." Orton had long admired Harris, and they met in 1997 when both were on the Lilith Fair tour. "On the last day of the tour, I have her a necklace," Orton says. "Then when I went to see her in London a few months ago when she was doing her anti-landmines concert, I walked into the dressing room and it just happened she was wearing that necklace. I had been scared to ask her to sing on my album, but I took that as a sign and asked her to sing and she did." Having heard Adams' subdued 2000 release, "Heartbreaker," Orton was a fan of his before last year's acclaimed "Gold" album. "I adored that album and was looking for someone to do backup vocals on the song 'Concrete Sky,' and he seemed like a good choice," she says. "We met up last year... He did a vocal part and it was wonderful, then I said, 'I've got a piano part, and a guitar part.' And then he had this song he said I'd be perfect for and played it for me and we did it in one take." In addition, veteran L.A. drummer Jim Keltner was recruited for one song, and Orton cites Ry Cooder's atmosphere score from the movie "Paris, Texas" as a big influence on the labum. But "Daybreaker" is hardly an all-American effort. English producer Ben Watt oversaw most of the sessions, and regular collaborators the Chemical Brothers mixed the title song. Orton also notes that the score to "Blade Runner," by Greek-born electronic musician Vangelis, was as much on her mind as Cooder's work. Orton will preview the album in U.S. clubs in May and June before returning to England to play on the outdoor festival circuit. She's due at the House of Blues in West Hollywood on May 28. Yahoo!
