Love and Its Opposite

2010 solo album from the Everything But the Girl vocalist. Partnering again with Berlin-based producer Ewan Pearson, Tracey Thorn has created an album that is striking in it's simplicity. Recorded in Berlin and London, Love And It's Opposite features contributions from Hot Chip's Al Doyle, the Invisible's Leo Taylor, Jens Lekman, Nashville songwriter-drummer Cortney Tidwell, and Lost Valentinos' guitarist Jono Ma. The tight, often undecorated arrangements for guitar, piano, bass, and drums (and a smattering of strings and woodwinds) confront the full unvarnished weight of complex relationships in flux.
