Kate Rusby has unveiled ‘We Will Sing’, the first preview track from her upcoming 30th anniversary album ’30: Happy Returns’.
The song features Ladysmith Black Mambazo and it gives fans a taste of what to expect when the album arrives on 6th May 2022 via Pure Records.
Premiering the track on the BBC Radio 2 Folk Show, Mark Radcliffe commented: “The first track released is ‘We Will Sing’ featuring the joyous sound of Ladysmith Black Mambazo. You can see the quality of guests that Kate is able to attract.”
If you ask Kate, she has always performed ‘We Will Sing’ with Ladysmith Black Mambazo, albeit hearing them sing along inside her own head.
