Katie Melua releases 4th album in May

'The House' is Katie Melua's new, and fourth, album and sees the 25 year old drawing from a broad pool of inspiration to write and record an album that is both musically adventurous and lyrically expressive.

Whilst Katie's previous three albums, 'Call Off The Search', 'Piece By Piece' and 'Pictures', established her as an extraordinarily gifted vocalist – after her concert at London's O2 Arena The Times wrote "her voice is rarely short of astounding" - 'The House' reveals an artist's desire to evolve and explore. The record is produced by William Orbit, who came out of his self-imposed retirement as a producer to work with Katie.

Katie has announced an extensive European tour for autumn 2010 which will include 13 shows in Britain in December. She will also be playing at festivals and outdoor concerts this summer including Thetford Forest on July 10th.
