Fresh Find: Ben's Brother!

After picking up a copy of Joss Stone's new album, "Colour Me Free" I came across a collaboration "Stalemate" with Jamie Hartman which I immediately liked. Hartman is part of Ben's Brother, a band from the UK who has just released their sophomore album, "Battling Giants". Much to my excitement, "Stalemate" was also recorded with Anastacia and is featured on the album as a bonus track. Take a listen to both versions below as well a promo from the album and let me know what you think!

Joss Stone Update!

Finally! Joss Stone's recorded and complete album, "Colour Me Free" will see the light of day on 20 October. Stone was in a battle with her record company to be released from her record contract earlier in the year. It now seems that she will release "Free" under the same lablel, whether this is due to force or having worked out her issues with the label is unknown.

Anyway, peep the official album cover artwork above and listen to the first single, "Free Me" below!

Exciting stuff! Great production and vocals, just what I expect from Joss. Roll on 20 October.
