Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man: Out of Season

Interview,  Nov, 2003  by Jarret McNeill

Singer Beth Gibbons steps away from the achingly beautiful melodrama of Portishead for this collaboration with Talk Talk's Paul Webb (a.k.a. Rustin Man). Webb's stark, ethereal atmospherics cascade behind Gibbon's voice like waterfalls, providing an environment well attuned to the restrained melancholy of her voice.

There's a timelessness to the project, and a sense of urgency, with Gibbon's quiet pleas drawing beauty from the barrenness.
