Jamie Lidell to release new album in May

Warp Records is pleased to announce the release of Jamie Lidell's third full-length album "Compass" on 17 May 2010 (May 18 in the US).

The album was recorded in Los Angeles, New York and Canada, Jamie's fellow travelers on Compass include Beck, Feist, Gonzales, Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear and Pat Sansone of Wilco. Musically and lyrically this is very much A Jamie Lidell Production--reflecting not only his exhilarating, diverse tastes, but also a year of change, love, longing and arrival at a new place.

"I wrote every song in a month," Jamie says, "It's been an emotional couple of years, so I tapped into what I wanted to say and started writing. There was a lot to draw on."

When he takes to the road in 2010, he'll be bringing a band again, but stripping it back; keeping it lean. For both newcomers and initiates, this will be an experience. And no, he won't stop.
