Natalie Imbruglia (born February 4, 1975) is an Australian singer-songwriter, model and actress. She was known to audiences as Beth Brennan in the popular Australian soap Neighbours. Three years after leaving the program, Natalie launched a singing career with the international hit, “Torn”. The subsequent debut album Left of the Middle (1997) sold over 6 million copies worldwide. While following releases, White Lilies Island (2001) and Counting Down the Days (2005), have been unable to match the commercial success of her debut, the latter became her first UK #1.
Natalie’s fourth studio album Come to Life, was released on October 2, 2009, but failed to impact any chart positively in the territories it was released in. The physical UK release has been delayed so that Imbruglia can commit to her duties as mentor and judge on the Australian version of the The X Factor franchise. She co-starred in the 2003 film Johnny English and made her leading actress debut in the 2009 film Closed for Winter.
Natalie parted ways with her record label. She is no longer associated with Brightside Recordings. It has been confirmed that she obtained the rights to the songs recorded for the album and is going to release her fourth studio album on her own independent label, Malabar Records. Natalie confirmed that the songs included on the record were co-written with Ben Hillier, Dave McCracken, Daniel Johns, Gary Clark, Jamie Hartman, Paul Harris and Shep Solomon. Some of the tracks were produced by Hillier and mixed by Danton Supple, who previously collaborated with the singer on her album White Lilies Island.
The album was scheduled to be released in March 2009 with the first single being sent to radio stations in February. It has now been confirmed by Imbruglia that the first single will be sent to radio around July, as she had a “last-minute inspiration” and also had some new material offered from Chris Martin . In an interview with BBC Radio 1 she said that “there is some electronic stuff in there”. The album is confirmed to be titled Come to Life.
