"Yours Truly, Cellophane Nose" introduces one of the most self-assured new artists of the year, a pop polymath whose blend of psychedelia, glam rock and chain gang folk is quite unlike anything else you’re likely to hear this year.

Having recorded the album without a record deal to ensure complete creative control, it will be released on Mute, the label described by Houghton as "The one that still believed in my record after everyone else had gone to the pub." Now ready for release, Beth sees the album as "an animal I'm preparing to ride. Grooming it, feeding it, braiding its hair, and I feel that Ben Hillier (album producer) has built me a saddle that is both practical and comfortable to use."
