On November 2 Blue Note Records is releasing “…Featuring;” an album of Norah Jones‘s musical collaborations spanning her career.
“It’s so exciting and flattering and fun when I get asked to sing with somebody that I admire,” says Jones. “It takes you a little bit out of your comfort zone when you’re doing something with another artist. You don’t know what to expect—it’s kind of like being a little kid and having a playdate.”
Jones’s unique vocals and musicianship have been very much in-demand among some of the most respected artists today. Jones’s duets on “…Featuring” include songs with music legends Willie Nelson, Ray Charles and Herbie Hancock, chart heavy hitters Outkast and Foo Fighters, as well as with friends and tour mates M. Ward and Sasha Dobson. For more info and a detailed tracklisting click here.
The album includes a song Jones did with Sean Bones, from the soundtrack to the film “Wah Do Dem” (Norah also co-stars). The film won Best Feature when it premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival in 2009 and it will be out on DVD in the US on October 26. Check out a preview here:
