Goldfrapp have unveiled the latest video from the Tales Of Us Deluxe Edition, released digitally on 30 June 2014 (8 July in the US). Watch the murderous video for Stranger, featuring Laura Donnelly and Alison Goldfrapp here:
This weekend Goldfrapp perform at the legendary Glastonbury Festival (Saturday 28 June at 8.30pm BST on the West Holts Stage). For those not lucky enough to be there in person, there’s an opportunity to watch the performance live at http://bbc.co.uk/glastonbury and listen to 30 minutes of the show on BBC 6Music from 9pm BST (http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music).
The Tales Of Us Deluxe Edition features the original Tales Of Us album, plus the audio from a very special live performance, Live from Air Studios. This performance was originally broadcast alongside the short film, Tales of Us, as part of a global cinema event in March 2014. The performance from the iconic Air Studios in London features classic Goldfrapp favourites, Train, Utopia, Strict Machine and Clowns with stunning versions of Clay, Alvar and Thea from Goldfrapp’s spellbinding new album.
Also featured on the Deluxe Edition are the films for five of the individual stories featured on the album, directed by Lisa Gunning: Stranger, Laurel, Jo, Drew and Annabel (which won Best Music Video at the Trans Gender Film Fest).
The award winning 30-minute Tales of Us film, co-created by Alison Goldfrapp and director & writer Lisa Gunning (Nowhere Boy, Seven Psychopaths, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen) premiered at the London Short Film Festival and won at the Byron Bay Film Festival and will be available to buy separately from the Deluxe Edition. The film subtly interconnects each of the individual stories, sharing themes of love, loss, madness and identity, taking the viewer on a unique musical journey.
The Tales Of Us box set featuring a beautiful 40-page hardback book, a 12” lithographic print, DVD featuring the album in 5.1 surround sound and documentary on the making of plus Tales of Us on CD and vinyl, is also available now on Mute.
Goldfrapp are performing live around Europe this summer for a series of festival appearances that include Glastonbury on 28 June and the Greenwich Music Time festival in London on 21 August.
