Dont Miss Joss Stone In Concert In Portugal

Oh yes. Joss Stone is back in Portugal in the new year and she is giving not one, but two live concerts this time round. The first will be at the Coliseu Porto in Porto on February 14th (that´s valentine´s day, for the romantic ones out there) and for those that cant make it to Porto she is playing in Lisbon the following night (February 15th 2010) at the Coliseu Lisboa. Both gigs start at 8.30pm. For those of you that dont know Joss is still only 21 years old

Here are a couple of short videos of of Joss singing “son of a preacher man” and “the chokin kind”,

Throughout her career, Joss has sold over ten million albums worldwide, and has won two BRIT Awards and one Grammy Award. She also made her acting debut in late 2006 with the fantasy adventure film Eragon, as the witch Angela, and she made her television debut portraying Anne of Cleves in the Showtime series The Tudors in 2009.

In 2001, at the age of fourteen, Stone auditioned for the BBC Television talent show Star for a Night in London singing Franklin’s 1968 Goffin-King hit “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” and Whitney Houston’s 1998 “It’s Not Right but It’s Okay”.[5] After passing her audition, she sang Donna Summer’s 1979 “On the Radio” for the broadcast, and eventually won the contest. Stone then performed on a charity show, where she drew the attention of the Boilerhouse Boys, composed of London-based producers Andy Dean and Ben Wolfe, who contacted S-Curve Records founder and chief executive officer Steve Greenberg in December 2001 telling him that “they had just heard the greatest singer they’d ever heard from their country.” In early 2002, Greenberg flew Stone to New York City for an audition, in which she sang to backing tracks of classic soul songs: Otis Redding’s 1968 “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay”, Gladys Knight & the Pips’ 1973 “Midnight Train to Georgia”, and Franklin’s “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman”;Greenberg instantly signed her to his label. Since then, she has appeared onstage with artists such as James Brown, Smokey Robinson, Donna Summer, Gladys Knight, Tom Jones, Robbie Williams, Melissa Etheridge, Rob Thomas, Rod Stewart, and Blondie. Stone is well-known for her trademark barefoot performances.
