NPR MUSIC STREAMING ENTIRE NEW BJORK ALBUM VOLTAIC
IN "EXCLUSIVE FIRST LISTEN" SERIES

Bjork
NPR Music is streaming a new album of live recordings from the complex and unpredictable singer Bjork, one week ahead of its official release. Her new album, Voltaic, is available for free, on-demand listening now through June 30 at npr.org/music, as part of the site's "Exclusive First Listen" series.

Bjork, the 13-time Grammy nominee from Iceland, released her sixth album, Volta, in 2007. Before embarking on what would become a two-year-long tour to promote the record, Bjork and her band held a recording session at Olympic Studios in London. Voltaic collects those live-to-tape recordings, which includes selections from Volta and several previous albums: Medulla, Homogenic, Post and Vespertine. The entire album can be streamed now at NPR Music, where there is also a video of Bjork performing "Declare Independence."

Stream Voltaic here.
