Joss Stone
Many British singers with deeper voices tend to get the “blue-eyed soul singer” card thrown at them whether they love it or hate it. Joss and her heavy voice, known for being breathy one minute then growling the next, was someone I assumed was of the black persuasion when I first heard the song, “Fell in Love With a Boy.” Well, she wasn’t of course, and since then, she’s garnered a lot of success and love, including some big ups from iconic singers like Patti Labelle and the chance to sing alongside The Roots, James Brown and more. And if kick-off-your-shoes Patti likes her, you’ve got to love her!
