Fiery Furnaces singer Eleanor Friedberger is streaming her debut solo album 'Last Summer' online ahead of its formal release on Monday (July 11).

The album is streaming via NPR.org now and can be listened to in full right up until it hits the streets next week.

'Last Summer' is Freidberger's first album away from the Fiery Furnaces, which she co-fronts with brother Matthew. The duo have recorded a total of nine albums across their eleven year career, with their most recent, 'Take Me Round Again', coming out in 2009.

Both members of the Fiery Furnaces have been keen to stress that despite Friedberger's current preoccupation with her solo career, they have no intention of splitting up and are simply taking a break.

Friedberger has also announced that she will be undertaking a full North American tour later in the year.
