[dirtynumbangelboy]

Björk's sixth full-length studio album Volta, a follow-up to 2004's Medúlla, will be released on May 7, 2007. It was primarily written and produced by Björk herself and features ten new tracks. It features input from:

* Timbaland (R&B and hip hop producer)

* Brian Chippendale (Drummer/vocalist in the band Lightning Bolt)
* Chris Corsano (Drummer)
* Toumani Diabate (Malian kora player)

* Sjón (Lyricist, has previously written the songs "Isobel", "Bachelorette" and "Oceania")
* Konono N°1 (Musical group from Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo)
* Min Xiao-Fen (Chinese pipa player and vocalist)
* A ten-piece female brass section consisting of Icelandic musicians.[4]

from [14]: "One Little Indian is preparing for what it expects to become the biggest-selling Björk album yet, thanks to a new Timbaland-inspired commercial direction and the promotion of an 18-month world tour. The album Volta is released on May 7. The first single off the album, Earth Intruders, is due for release on April 9. Björk is preparing to work the album extensively. The tour will be announced this Friday and dates are already confirmed for Glastonbury, Coachella and Roskilde.

One Little Indian managing director Derek Birkett is hugely excited by the sales potential of the album. "It's probably the most commercial thing she's ever done," he says. "It's really up and happy and the collaborations are extraordinary". Birkett is also surprised by the willingness of Björk to tour so extensively, which will see her go round the world on a month-on month-off basis. "If someone had told me six months ago, I wouldn't have believed it," he says. "The plans for the tour are mind-blowing- Björk's devised her own set and will have 30 musicians on stage".

Björk will also be touring for the first time in four years in support of the upcoming album; the majority of confirmed performances so far are at festivals. Drummer Darrin Costin has been working with Björk on her forthcoming tour.[5]

Björk has also collaborated on tracks with the following artists, the status of which are as yet unknown.

* Michael Pärt music producer, was involved at writing stages, recording and production of "Volta"..[6]
* Damian Taylor, programmer on Vespertine, has worked with Björk on material for her new album.[7]
* Meredith Monk and Björk have worked together on a collaborative piece.

Björk is also contributing songs to several forthcoming releases by other artists, the majority of which are to be released in early 2007.

* Björk is also contributing vocals to Valgeir Sigurðsson's new album, titled Equilibrium Is Restored. [15]

* Björk's long-rumoured cover of Joni Mitchell's song "The Boho Dance" will finally surface on a tribute album due on April 24 in the USA. [16]

* Björk.com has just confirmed her North American dates of her world tour which kicks off on May 2.
* May 02 - New York - Radio City Music Hall
* May 05 - New York - United Palace Theater
* May 08 - New York - Apollo Theater
