One half of popular '90s alternative pop duo Everything But The Girl, Ben Watt has announced he'll be releasing his first solo album in 30 years.

Watt will unveil the new record, titled Hendra on Friday 11 April via Unmade Records/Caroline and has been described by the muso as a "folk-rock record in an electronic age."

His last solo release came in the shape of 1983's North Marine Drive.

The LP isn't the only project Watt is excited about in 2014. He just released his second book, Romany And Tom, last month. His first book, the autobiographical Patient, was released in the mid '90s.

To date, Everything But The Girl are best known for their international hit Missing.
