Water For Your Soul - Nouvel album, nouveaux horizons!

Bonjour tout le monde!

Ca a été confirmé, le 7ème album studio de Joss Stone, Water For Your Soul, paraîtra le 17 Juillet 2015.

La pochette de l'album a été choisie suite à un concours proposé aux fans et c'est finalement le dessin d'un certain Aofie qui a été retenu.

"Well it certainly has been a difficult but very fun job choosing the artwork for this next album.

Thank you a thousand times to all of you who took part. I loved seeing what you see. The effort and love that has been put into each piece of artwork we received was very inspiring for me. So thank you for that.

I have chosen this piece because it says to me how free we can be. It says to me love, fluidity; Mother Nature's earth is what gives us soul. This lady here looks like the wild flower fairy I wish I could be. She is beautiful, Unstoppable and graceful like the rivers that join with the deep blue sea. Eternally free, and that is how I want to feel. I wish for everyone to feel that when receiving what I have to give.

Thank you Aofie ! You captured something very special here.

Now I just really hope you like the music.

I better get my ass back in the studio and make this album live up to its cover! Xxxx" -- Joss Stone a propos de son choix de couverture pour l'album.

L'album sera un mix de plusieurs influences, en particulier Soul et ... Reggae.

C'est un album qui a apparemment été très "fun" à faire (une sorte de marque de fabrique chez Joss) et la princesse de la Soul affirme que les fans ne seront pas dépaysés par ses expériences sur cet album.

La participation de Damian Marley, entre-autres, a été confirmée.

Joss a profité du second segment de son JSTWT (2014-5) pour tester quelques nouveaux titres, pas encore "tout-à-fait finis", sur le public.

On notera par exemple "The Answer":
