BETH GIBBONS was the voice/face of renowned British trip-hop
outfit Portishead who released (only) 3 LPs between 1994 and 2008.

She’ll have her solo debut album, named PEOPLE OUTGROWN out on 17th May.

The longplayer was recorded over the last decade and includes with production
by Gibbons, James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Depeche Mode), and Lee Harris (Talk Talk).
It takes inspiration from a time of deep reflection, change, and, “lots of goodbyes.

Gibbons about the album: “I realised what life was like with no hope. And that was
a sadness I’d never felt. Before, I had the ability to change my future, but when you’re up against your body, you can’t make it do something it doesn’t want to do. People started
dying.

When you’re young, you never know the endings, you don’t know how it’s going to pan out.
You think: we’re going to get beyond this. It’s going to get better. Some endings are hard to digest.”

Following lead-single Floating On A Moment Gibbons presents
a 2nd new track, a haunting piece named REACHING OUT .

The song is accompanied by an amazing video clip.
