Moby news

Moby has released a new single and video for “Like a Motherless Child,” from his forthcoming album Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt.

Featuring LA-based singer Raquel Rodriguez, “Like a Motherless Child” is a re-work of the well-known spiritual with origins in the slavery of the American South. Over the years this song has been reinterpreted by Odetta, Lena Horne, Mahalia Jackson and Van Morrison.

The album, scheduled for release on March 2 via Mute, finds Moby returning to his orchestral, soul, trip-hop and gospel roots.

Moby has curated a playlist of artists that influenced the recording of Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt. This playlist, on Spotify and YouTube, will also be the first place fans can hear new Moby music. Listen and subscribe here.
