Anna Calvi will release a new version of 'Hunter' on March 6.
Titled 'Hunted', the reworking of her 2018 album features collaborations with Courtney Barnett, Joe Talbot of Idles, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Julia Holter.
Alongside the announcement, Calvi has shared the reimagined Don't Beat The Girl Out Of My Boy featuring Barnett. Discussing the record and track, Calvi said:
"During a break from touring I went back and listened to the first recordings I ever made of 'Hunter'. These recordings capture the very moment I first wrote these songs, and recorded them on my own, in my attic studio. I find something especially intimate about sharing these most private recordings with my favourite singers and asking them to lend their voices and artistic sensibility.
"Courtney Barnett is an amazing artist. Her voice and guitar playing together are mind blowing. Her ability to connect the profound to the smallest moments of human experience is the unique talent of a true artist."
Barnett also commented:
"Anna is a completely awe-inspiring performer, it's impossible to take your eyes off her onstage. I love her songwriting for its beautiful and perfect balance between aggression and tenderness."
Calvi plays a show at London's Windmill on February 1 as part of Independent Venue Week. She also plays All Points East at Victoria Park this spring following a North American tour including an appearance at Coachella.
