BETH ORTON


LIVE MUSIC:
While Beth Orton's fusion of electronic beats and indie folk earned her early accolades, her recently sparser productions have ushered in a new era of delicacy. Continuing to cruise on the momentum of 2006's critically acclaimed Comfort of Strangers, the hoarse-throated folkie hits Brooklyn's Prospect Park tonight 7PM, imbuing the bandshell with the intimacy of a back-room bar.
