Ahead of her new LP Kidsticks, Beth Orton has released the video for single ‘1973’.

Out on Friday May 27 via ANTI- Records, Kidsticks was co-produced by Beth and Andrew Hung from F*ck Buttons. It was recorded with various musician friends of Beth’s in California including George Lewis Jr. from Twin Shadow on electric guitars, Grizzly Bear’s Chris Taylor on backing vocals and bass guitar and Dustin O'Halloran from A Winged Victory for the Sullen who provided piano and string arrangements.

On the new track Beth said: “1973 plays with this idea of memory and reality. There's a surreal nature to Tierney's work that I love, as well as her use of the Californian landscape and light."
