Beth Orton live in Glasgow

Experience Beth Orton live on October 17th

Beth Orton will perform at St Luke’s, Glasgow on October 17, 2026. Orton is a British singer-songwriter known for her distinctive blend of folk, trip-hop, and electronic music. Emerging in the mid-1990s, her work frequently incorporates subtle dance beats alongside intimate, often melancholic vocals and lyrical themes exploring personal experience and observation. She gained recognition as part of the Bristol sound scene alongside artists like Massive Attack and Portishead, though her musical style ultimately developed a unique identity. Albums such as *Trailer Park* (1996) and *Central Reservation* (1999) established her critical acclaim.

St Luke’s is a converted parish church in the Finnieston area of Glasgow. Originally built in 1860, it served as a place of worship until its closure in 1988. Subsequently falling into disrepair, it was extensively renovated and reopened in 2012 as a multi-purpose events space. The building retains many original architectural features including stained glass windows and a vaulted ceiling, creating a distinctive atmosphere for performances.
