Rebecca Ferguson, whose voice has been compared to Aretha Franklin, Nina Simone and Dusty Springfield has reached for the stars with her third album “Lady Sings the Blues” which will be released on RCA Records on March 9.
The album is Rebecca’s interpretation of the iconic Billie Holiday album, whose story led to the multi award winning film and record starring Diana Ross. Ferguson now brings her own experience and story to these classic songs for a new generation.
The album was recorded in Los Angeles at the famed Capitol Studios, with producer Troy Miller, who has previously worked with Amy Winehouse, Rumer, Laura Mvula, Dexys Midnight Runners, Chaka Khan and ‘Gershwin recomposed’.
