Trailer Park is the solo debut of British singer Beth Orton. Combining folk, electronica, and trip-hop elements, it earned Orton two BRIT Award nominations. The only single from the album was the opening track, "She Cries Your Name," which previously appeared in a different form on William Orbit\'s album Strange Cargo Hinterland. All songs were co-written by Orton except for a haunting, sparse take on the Phil Spector composition, "I Wish I Never Saw the Sunshine." The album was among the first to fuse elements of 60s and 70s folk with modern electronica and trip-hop.
