    (December 11, 2020) Signed at age 15 and mentored by the late great Betty Wright, Joss Stone has already seemed to have two full careers, and she is just age 33. The powerful vocalist has been absent from the studio for three years, but today she has returned with new music on her original label, S-Curve. 

    "Walk With Me" is a call for unity and brotherhood in a year that has tested both of those virtues.

    Walk with me, walk with me
    Through the drama these days will pass
    Walk with me
    The time I love is close at hand
    Let's come together, united we stand
    Side by side, step by step
    Walk with me

    Bathed in a gospel-tinged call and response arrangement, the big ballad allows Stone to show off her ample vocal chops, as she interacts with the background choir. She and the song both sound great, and they provide a little bit of church to us all just before the holidays.

    Check out "Walk With Me" and welcome the talented Joss Stone back to the stage.
