KATIE MELUA, makes NEW ALBUM with Madonna producer

I just love Katie Melua, her beautiful voice and soft beautiful music.


According danish music site gaffa.dk, ( http://gaffa.dk/nyhed/36664 ) Katie Melua's 4th album is set to be released in may 2010, and she will be changing her style this time, co-working with the famous producer William Orbit, known from producing Madonna's "Ray Of Light" album.

News from Katie Melua's official site:
http://www.katiemelua.com/news.html

Having spent 2009 writing songs for the album, including teaming up with songwriting partners Guy Chambers and Rick Nowels amongst others, Katie is currently in the studio finishing the as-yet-untitled record with producer William Orbit. Orbit has been running a commentary of the studio sessions on Twitter and Facebook including "this is shaping up to be one of the finest things I’ve ever been involved with. I am hearing what can only be described as magic"


PRINCE did a cover of "9 Million Bicycles" in London, 2007:









Katie Melua will also be touring in 2010,

Katie Melua did a cover of "Under The Cherry Moon" the Prince song - in 2007.

It's on iTunes, bonus track to her album "Pictures".

Let me know if you succeed, finding it. wink

haha, well I'm sure William Orbit has produced lots and lots of other artists,

but:

1) he's famous for the Madonna: Ray Of Light album.

2) the headline made you look and click on this thread, thanks.

woot! smile
