Katie Melua has already sold more than 10 million albums with hits including "Closest Thing To Crazy" and "Nine Million Bicycles." But she admitted she was surprised when the dance producer expressed an interest in teaming up with her after he quit the industry. "I was so lucky when he heard my new tracks and responded so well to them," "I didn't actually know that he was in retirement and then we sent him the new songs and he got back to us straight away," she added.

The epic first single "The Flood" which received high rotation on radio, will now be followed by the July release of "A Happy Place" and a busy summer of festival appearances and concerts across the continent.
UK appearances include Thetford Forest and Chichester Festival and, in December, the UK leg of Katie's extensive European tour.
The House is out on Dramatico, US release August 3, 2010.
