=uEpeL~d;+ 8|Ob7+ Scottish singer-songwriter KT Tunstall burst onto the public consciousness last year with her gritty debut album Eye to the Telescope, a provocative sonic mesh of heartfelt pop, rootsy, electric blues, and left-field alt-rock. Eye spawned three hit singles — the Grammy-Award nominated "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree," "Suddenly I See," and "Other Side of the World" — all of which became omnipresent on radio, television, movies, and the Internet. Thanks to the multi-media exposure, Eye is certified platinum in the U.S., with worldwide sales exceeding 3.5 million copies.

qF:Wl@ X_!km-{ Now Tunstall is readying her follow-up, entitled Drastic Fantastic, which will be released by Virgin Records on September 18th, 2007. It showcases the 31-year-old's growth as both a songwriter and musician on songs like the thumping "Hold On," the rollicking "Saving My Face," the jazz-inflected "Someday Soon," and the frisky pop gem "I Don’t Want You Now." "I wanted to be braver," Tunstall says of the album. "I wanted to push the musicality. You can't let previous success scare you away from moving on."
Wf-XH|j[ /%gMzF 2006 Grammy nominee K.T. Tunstall became one of the most acclaimed singer-songwriters in the world in one giant step, with the amazing two-year global journey of her multi-million selling debut album, 'Eye To The Telescope'. In September 2007,
\UX9[5| Virgin Records will release Tunstall's second album, 'Drastic Fantastic'.

ubzZ9 For 'Drastic Fantastic' K.T. again tapped Telescope producer Steve Osbourne (U2, New Order, Happy Mondays). The album was
rITA-W O mixed by Michael H. Brauer (Coldplay, The Rolling Stones, My Morning Jacket). Tunstall recently told a British interviewer
hQ@#h`lS that her acquisition of two "very sexy" guitars had inspired her to crank them for the new album, providing a clue to the

BL@, Both the U.S. music media and the enthused fans that packed out her first North American appearances were immediately impressed with Tunstall's unique delivery, as well as the substance and originality of her musical fusion. Early in the U.S. tour that preceded the album's 2006 U.S release, The New York Times noted K.T.'s "strong voice, that in the same chorus can rasp like a blues mama and giggle like a giddy kid."
$$EEhy 1OqVV?oz Joining the Live Earth event to educate a generation on the climate crisis is just the latest evidence of Tunstall's nsistent commitment to making and publicizing eco-friendly choices in her life and career. Tunstall has performed in such recent events as Elle Magazine's Green Issue party and e! Entertainment Television's post-Golden Globes "Golden Green"-themed after-party, which was affiliated with Global Cool, the campaign that creates environmental consciousness through entertainment and educational events. Tunstall was among the central founding figures in the launch of Global Cool, whose first act was to meet with British Prime Minister Tony Blair and lobby him and a group of fifty major business leaders on environmental issues at 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's residence.
IZiS3 Z9|A"[b In the victory lap that was her post-platinum U.S. headline tour, Tunstall traveled in an environmentally friendly biodiesel bus. Tunstall is also affiliated with The CarbonNeutral Company, a consulting project that analyzes and facilitates voluntary action on climate change for businesses, governments and individuals. To offset the carbon footprint of her own album, Tunstall partnered with CarbonNeutral in a dedicate-a-tree plan in her native Scotland's Carrifran Wildwood, which, thanks to the enthusiastic response of her fans, now totals more than 5,000 trees. In keeping with its own environmental initiatives, Virgin will be assisting K.T.'s efforts in "greening" the launch of 'Drastic Fantastic.'
