JOAN OSBORNE REUNITES WITH HER GRAMMY ALL-STAR TEAM ON NEW ALBUM 'LITTLE
WILD ONE' DUE OUT SEPTEMBER 9
RICK CHERTOFF, ROB HYMAN AND ERIC BAZILIAN LAST COLLABORATED WITH OSBORNE ON
HER FIVE MILLION SELLING, SIX-TIME GRAMMY-NOMINATED, BREAKTHROUGH ALBUM
'RELISH'
Joan Osborne has reunited with producer/writers Rick Chertoff, Rob Hyman,
and Eric Bazilian on her new album 'Little Wild One,' scheduled for a
September 9 release on her own Womanly Hips label in partnership with Plum
Records. The team last worked together on Osborne's breakthrough, debut
album 'Relish,' which sold five million copies worldwide and yielded the
smash hit "One Of Us" as well as scoring six Grammy nominations.
'Little Wild One' features eleven new songs, most of them written by Osborne
in collaboration with Chertoff, Bazilian and Hyman. Highlights include
"Hallelujah in the City," "Sweeter Than The Rest," "Cathedrals," the
haunting title track "Little Wild One" and the stripped-down "Bury Me On The
Battery," an ode to Osborne's coming of age hometown, New York City.
In a career that spans over fifteen years, Joan has proven to be an
artistically restless yet consistently enthralling performer. In 2002, she
cemented her reputation as a top tier soul singer with an incredible turn in
the acclaimed documentary film 'Standing in the Shadows of Motown,' followed
by a tour with legendary Motown backing band The Funk Brothers. In 2003,
Osborne toured with the Dixie Chicks and then surprised and wowed audiences
touring throughout America for two years as the lead singer for The Dead. In
2007, she graced the stage of the Grand Ole Opry.
Osborne loves to sing and perform in many different genres, but she comes
back to her soulful rock roots on 'Little Wild One.' Watch for Joan to tour
extensively around the release of her new album.

In the twilight hours of daunting pathways, of desolation, of decadence, for only in the grip of darkness will we shine amongst the prentious stars.
1 Peter 2:1-10 (personal adaption)
"Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking," with eyes wide open, desire the truth of the word. In whatever way it comes to you. Awaken to the duality which prevails. Steer clear of the empty walls for the road to everlasting longevity is there. "Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood,(your will and testimony) to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, “ Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.” Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, “ The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,” and “ A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense.” They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed. But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy."
