After an impressive performance on Later…with Jools Holland in September last year, Tennessee-raised, Minneapolis based soul-songstress Chastity Brown is heading back to the UK in July 2015 for a string of UK live dates and festivals. Chastity will be performing at London’s prestigious 100 Club on July 13. Chastity has been busy in the studio for the past few months working on her new album, due for UK release nearer the end of the year. Chastity will be showcasing some of new tracks, as well as live favourites throughout July. Her 2013 album BACK-ROAD HIGHWAYS received huge critical acclaim (Independent 4* / Sunday Times Culture / Maverick 5* / 4* The Daily Mirror), and was a favourite amongst reviewers’ Top 10 end of year lists. The album’s lead track, After You was featured in the BBC/HBO film, ‘Mary & Martha’ starring Hilary Swank, and Chastity was also invited to duet with Michael Kiwanuka whilst supporting him at First Ave in Minneapolis. Chastity’s style is a beautiful mix of Gospel, Roots & Soul, Jazz, Blues & Country, and it couldn’t work better. Chastity channels songs that are born deep in the American bone, the hunger, desperation and confidence that runs through our times.
