Following her sell out European tour earlier this year Lisa Stansfield is releasing her long awaited new album Seven on the 7th of October 2013.
Lisa’s career has spanned over 4 decades, boasting sales of nearly 20 million records and a string of Top 10 UK and European hits including: Around The World, All Woman and This Is The Right Time.
The aptly named album Seven is Lisa’s 7th studio release and promises to galvanize her fan base old and new. The multi BRIT, Ivor Novello and Silver Clef Award winner has returned to the studio to record along with long-time songwriting partner Ian Devaney, whose credits include The Bodyguard and Indecent Proposal soundtracks.
Seven which has been produced and written in the UK by Lisa Stansfield and husband Ian Devaney features tracks such as:Can’t Dance, The Rain, Stupid Heart, Conversation, The Crown, Strong, So Be It and Picket Fence
Recorded in Manchester, Stansfield has collaborated with John “JR” Robinson, known as the most recorded drummer in history and Grammy award winning orchestrator Jerry Hey, both who were integral to the creation of Michael Jackson’s Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad and have worked with Lisa for over two decades.
Following her critically acclaimed return to the stage – The Times said “Lisa still has the most distinctive and sensuous voice in soul pop”
Seven marks Lisa’s return to the international stage and confirms her status as one of the UK’s premier recording artists.
Due to phenomenal demand and a recent sold out European tour, Lisa is also delighted to announce five further UK Autumn tour dates. These upcoming shows in: Bexhill, Bournemouth, Manchester, Bristol and London feature both classic hits and new material taken from the upcoming albumSeven
Adding a further string to her bow, and with Lisa’s ongoing contribution to Northern Soul being undeniable, Stansfield will be starring in independent film about the genre due out later this year. Charting the soul phenomenon that rose out of Northern England, Northern Soul will see Lisa team up with British acting and comedy stars including Steve Coogan and Ricky Tomlinson paying homage to the musical genre that has influenced her own style.

Artists old and new rely on getting radio play to deliver their song to the widest possible audience. While music is readily available all over the internet it is Radio that provides quality control and a filter to let the best music reach the largest number of people. Our business is responsible for exposing new music and developing talent but are we taking our role in creating the culture of Britain seriously enough? How do you get airplay? How hard is it to convince Radio Stations to play your music? How do you establish a new act on the airwaves and are Radio Stations supporting enough new music or simply relying on the same old crowd pleasers?
We ask key players from the industry about how they find the state of our business, what’s right and what’s wrong and what they would change.
