Bjork Gets Every Cool Person Ever to Help On New Album

Bjork’s handpicked anything is going to be super hot, including the new crew of collaborators on her upcoming album.

According to her website, Timbaland produces two tracks and Antony Hegarty (of Antony and the Johnsons) duets on two others. Toumani Diabate plays the Kora and Konono nr.1 contributes with electric thumb pianos, and some of the percussion will come from Chris Corsano and Brian Chippendale from Lightning Bolt.

Her last album, 2004’s Medulla, included contributions from Mike Patton, Rahzel, Matmos and Robert Wyatt.

The new release is still untitled and will be out sometime in late spring on Atlantic. Her site also mentions she’ll be touring this year, but definite dates and festivals have not been confirmed.
