Kate Bush is streaming a track from her first ‘Directors Cut’ new album in almost a decade.

‘Directors Cut’ finds Kate Bush looking backwards over her career, pulling out memorable tracks for a modern re-working.
Due for release this summer, the album is set to be previewed by new single ‘Deeper Understanding’. A classic cut, Kate Bush has confirmed that the track will be available to download tomorrow (April 5th).
