According to today’s Indepedent, Beverley Knight has let slip that she will be doing this year’s Glastonbury Festival 2007 -
Knight goes soul searching in Nashville, Twelve months ago, the soul singer Beverley Knight released her greatest hits. “She has a mind-blowing voice,” one reviewer wrote, before adding unkindly that “as this career retrospective proves, she has never fulfilled her potential”.
On Wednesday, Knight launches her new album, Music City Soul, at the Bloomsbury Ballroom. “I’m so happy with this one, much happier,” she tells Pandora. “I didn’t want a sterile, too-polished sound. So we went to Nashville for the roots of soul, where all the best soul guys have gone from Memphis, and we recorded it live. What you’ve got is us, in Nashville, on 28 October 2006.”
Knight will tour in the autumn, after playing the music festivals this summer: “I can’t wait for Glasto. I’ve only done it once before.”
