Joss Stone is back with brand new music.
The soul sensation has released her latest single Never Forget My Love, which is co-written and produced with Eurythmics star Dave Stewart.
Calling the release the start of a “new chapter”, the heartfelt tune is also the title track from Joss’ upcoming album, due 2022.
“Dave and I have been great friends for a very long time and we have worked together on various projects,” she says.
“He has this calm, quiet confidence that encourages you to tell your story. He is a breath of fresh air, very young at heart. And he always wants to lift you up.”
The duo wrote every song for the new record on acoustic guitar and recorded all the tracks together in Nashville.
“Joss and I have had many adventures around the world writing and recording and we have always enjoyed every minute. We are essentially best friends which makes it effortless. The music flows naturally between us,” Dave adds.
“In the making of this album, ‘Never Forget My Love’, as usual we started off small, just the two of us writing with an acoustic guitar, but if you were to hear those simple phone recordings we are already singing and shouting out brass lines and string arrangements to each other and anyone listening would think we were crazy people. We have a secret musical language and it’s so special.
“I’m very proud of this album, in particular, as I think we’ve captured magic in this collection of songs recorded with amazing players and orchestral arrangements that could have been written in the sixties and that sound so familiar on first listen.”
It marks the singer-songwriter’s first full-length LP in more than five years and her first new music with Stewart in over a decade.
