Prior to the start of recording his critically acclaimed album “Uptown Special”(RCA), Mark Ronson and producer Jeff Bhasker were on a mission to discover the young female vocalist they had been imagining in their heads while writing the songs, the pair set out on a vast road trip across the US, driving through New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Jackson, Memphis, St. Louis, Little Rock and Chicago. While visiting gospel choirs in Jackson, MS they discovered 23-year old Keyone Starr and were blown away by her impressive range and presence. They immediately invited her into the legendary Royal Studios in Memphis to record “I Can’t Lose” and two additional tracks on the album.
