The 35-year-old singer – who will release her fifth album ‘Sunset In The Blue’ on October 23 – has collaborated with the ‘Fields of Gold’ star on her new track ‘Little Something’, which was unveiled on Friday (04.09.20).<\/p>\n

She said: “During these complicated times, collaboration is the only saving grace for us musicians.
“I was so surprised and then to find out it was a duet with Sting!<\/p>\n

“While I recognise it is a big switch from my usual musical genre, I loved having the chance to challenge myself with something new… That’s what music is all about.”<\/p>\n

Although the two musicians have met in the past – and Melody is a big fan of Sting – this is the first time they’ve worked together.<\/p>\n

The track was written by their mutual guitarist Dominic Miller, who created the song specifically with the duo in mind.
Sting added: “This new song – co-written by my dear friend Dominic Miller – has a simple and infectious joy, and it was so much fun to trade vocals with the exquisite Melody Gardot.<\/p>\n

“I hope you can hear the smile in our voices.”<\/p>\n

Jazz singer Melody – whose most recent album ‘Currency of Man’ dropped in 2015 – was recording her new record where she lives in Paris when lockdown started, and she auditioned musicians around the world when they needed the work.<\/p>\n

The entire album was made during the pandemic, and she was also joined by the prestigious Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.<\/p>\n

The group – who were the first orchestra to return to Abbey Road Studios after lockdown – accompany her for nine tracks on the album.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
