Mark Ronson has premiered the video for his new single, ‘I Can’t Lose’.
‘I Can’t Lose’ is a synth-heavy club jam with an 80’s feel, sung by debut vocalist, Keyone Starr. Several ideas for the new album ‘Uptown Special’ were realized on a road trip Jeff Bhasker suggested he and Mark take South to the country’s heartland, including the discovery of Keyone’s exquisite vocal talents.
Starting out in New Orleans, they drove up to Mississippi and visited churches throughout the region before landing in Jackson. In walked Keyone Starr, ‘a cool looking girl with an amazing rasp in her voice,’ Ronson recalls. She agreed to come to Memphis to take a stab at recording and ended up adding her powerful soulful vocals on the single, ‘Silver Dagger’ and background vocals to ‘Crack In the Pearl’.
‘I Can’t Lose’ is taken from Ronson’s album Uptown Special, and follows the worldwide hit’Uptown Funk’.
This Friday night at Glastonbury, Mark and his band, featuring Keyone Starr and a host of other special guest vocalists – Daniel Merriweather, Kyle Falconer, MNDR, Theophilus London, Kevin Parker, Andrew Wyatt, Boy George and more – will perform for Glastonbury’s Other Stage.
