beverley knight soul survivor

The latest track to be released by the UK’s own soul diva Beverley Knight will be the excellent Soul Survivor, featuring none other than the legendary Chaka Khan.

The single will be released on March 8th through Bevereley’s own record label Hurricane Records and is the third track to be taken from her sixth studio album 100%.

The single is the lead track from The Soul Survivor EP, which will also contain ‘Turned To Stone’ as well as live tracks from Beverley’s hugely successful 100% tour from the  Autumn of 2009.

Beverley Knight says of the defiant old skool stomper Soul Survivor;

“When me and Guy (Chambers) first wrote this song I recorded it alone initially, but I knew there was another dimension to it – and Chaka was that dimension! She’s incredible. Everyone knows there are ebbs and flows in a career in the music industry. That’s what this song is about. People fall in and out of favour all the time. The thing that gets you through is the love of what you do.”

While Knight herself has experienced the ups and downs of a career in music, her live performances have always been nothing short of  brilliant as this recording of Soul Survivor from her recent UK tour shows.
