Duffyâs new single âStepping Stoneâ is the latest single to be taken from her widely acclaimed, phenomenally successful debut album âRockferry and is set for release on September 1st.
The track was penned by Duffy and Steve Booker who also produced the track, and will be released on CD and 7â vinyl as well as a two-track digital single available exclusively on iTunes.
âStepping Stoneâ is one of the many album highlights, it is a song about self-possession, strength and restraint . The music is dramatic, pulsating yet sparse, compelling the listener to focus on Duffyâs remarkable vocals and evocative lyrics.
Duffy is soon to embark on a string of U.S. dates, before returning to the UK next month for three festival dates - V Festival (August 16th, 17th) and Hydro Connect (August 31st) - having already demonstrated her festival credentials with a stunning debut performance at Glastonbury.
Since the release of âRockferryâ in March this year, Duffy has gone on to sell over a million albums in the UK making her the yearâs biggest selling artist to date. âRockferryâ has sold in excess of 2.5 million copies worldwide, and is now certified gold in fifteen countries (including the U.S.) and platinum in a further ten.
