Lustre is the fifth studio album from British singer-songwriter Ed Harcourt. The album is set for release on June 14, 2010 in the UK, and a day later in the US.
The album is the first release on Ed's own label Piano Wolf Recordings, distributed through Essential Music Marketing. The album follows his 2009 EP Russian Roulette, and is his first studio album since 2006's The Beautiful Lie. On his official MySpace blog, Ed said of the album: "It's got horns, violins, howling, mellophones, the Langley sisters, barks, whistles, hell I even sung down by a creek in the middle of the night." Harcourt told Direct Current that the album is "about that gleaming quality - the vitality, the passion - that drives you to keep going and not give up."A special edition of the album will also be released in the UK, featuring a bonus disc of unreleased recordings. The album is preceded by the single "Do as I Say Not as I Do."
