EXCLUSIVE STREAM: Alison Moyet Debuts New Album Here, Plus Tour Dates
|

Alison Moyet is back after six years with her album 'the minutes'.

Despite selling more than 20 million singles in a 30-year career, Alison Moyet has always successfully resisted being any kind of pop puppet, so we can believe her when she describes this as her "happiest studio experience".

Huffington Post UK is pleased to host the exclusive stream of 'the minutes' - LISTEN ABOVE.

Alison Moyet is back, sounding as distinctive as ever

‘the minutes’ was produced by Guy Sigsworth, known for his work with Madonna, Goldie, Robyn and Madonna, and gives proper foundation for Alison Moyet's unique, powerful, low voice.

“I avoided listening to anything during the process of writing and recording this album, choosing instead to be lead by my own melodic voice, the one I now find myself with 30-years-in”, says Alison. “Guy Sigsworth returns me to a programmer's world and marries it with perfect musicality. I have been waiting for him. We have made an album mindless of industry mores that apply to middle-aged women and have shunned all talk of audiences, demographics and advert jazz covers. This has easily been my happiest studio experience.”

'the minutes' is out on 6 May. You can click here to pre-order the album on iTunes.
