The build up to the **October 4th** release of **Alison Moyet’s** reworked career retrospective **‘Key’** has demonstrated a continuing fan devotion for an artist who has achieved two **#1 **albums, six** Top 10** singles, three **BRIT Awards** and a **Grammy **nomination. With substantial pre-orders, phenomenal ticket sales and high-profile media moments such as **Radio 2’s Piano Room** session, **Alison** is now building momentum for the next step in a storied career. Today, she extends that growing interest by sharing the new preview track **‘Filigree’**.

Speaking on the meaning of this song **Alison** says: *“Sometimes in life, we are met with the overwhelming urge to leave, losing faith that the next corner reveals a gift of light. It takes the dark to name it. Joy is like a mayfly. It comes for minutes at a time. That’s what makes it remarkable.”*

First featured on the** 2013 **album **‘the minutes’**, **‘Filigree’ **is one of the distinctive reworkings presented on the **‘Key’** album. Co-written with **Guy Sigsworth** (Björk, AURORA), and originally presented as a glacial, unhurried electro-pop song, here it stands apart with its delicate and intimate folk arrangement courtesy of producer **Sean McGhee.** The recording features 5 x BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards winner **Chris Wood** on electric guitar, **John Garden **on piano and **Ben Nicholls **on double bass.

**‘Filigree’**, **‘So Am I’**, **‘Such Small Ale’ **and **‘All Cried Out’ **collectively provide a window to the nature of the **‘Key’ **album. There are hits, fan favourites and deep cuts: all reconstructed by varying degrees in order to create a cohesive set of songs separated by decades in their creation. **Alison’s **voice – selective in its language and informed by the lessons of experience – consistently provides character, nuance and resonant, emotional depth.

The **‘Key’** album campaign runs parallel to the podcast series ‘**40 Moyet Moments’**, in which **Alison **shares a deep dive into specific songs and memorable career moments with host **Steve Coats-Dennis**. It has become an international hit, landing at **#1 **on prime podcast charts including **Apple Podcasts UK** (**Music** and **Music Interviews**), **Spotify UK** (**Music**), **Apple Podcasts Australia** (**Music Interviews**) and **Apple Podcasts Ireland** (**Music**).

**‘Key’ **is available to pre-order[ ](https://alisonmoyet.lnk.to/Key)**[HERE](https://alisonmoyet.lnk.to/Key)**. **Alison’s **official store offers an array of physical formats, while album bundles can also include a new phonetic t-shirt design and a signed art print. While all signed test pressings rapidly sold-out, there are also retailer-specific double-vinyl formats available from **Amazon**,** HMV**, **The Sound of Vinyl **and select indie stores.

**Alison‘s **long-awaited **2025 **world tour has already resulted in phenomenal demand, with every **UK** and **Ireland** show sold out more than six months in advance. The tour will soon be expanded with the confirmation of shows in the **US**, **Canada**, **Australia **and **New Zealand**.
