Perhaps it's ironical, but Jim O'Rourke plays very little guitar on the album. 'Comfort Of Strangers' features Beth Orton on guitar, piano and harmonica with O'Rourke on bass, piano and marimba and the American percussionist Tim Barnes - whose credits include work with Wilco, the Silver Jews and Neil Hagerty - on drums.
The album is completed with occasional overdubs from the Tin Hat Trio's pianist, Rob Burger.
