A laid-back mix of singer/songwriter and downtempo. Although her voice can sound somewhat limited at times it has a very relaxing feel to it. There's some great songs on this album such as 'Stolen Car', 'Love Like Laughter' and the almost trip-hop 'Stars Seem To Weep' and 'Central Reservation (The Then Again Version)'. She has also collaborated with The Chemical Brothers on a number of occasions.
Ben Watt (The other half of Everything But The Girl) worked with Beth on those tracks and they are great tracks. Not heard much from the guy over the last few years apart from a Buzzin' Fly compilation which is a shame as I love his chilled beats:
