STING ON NEW HERBIE HANCOCK CD

Billboard released following article in February 2005: How does Starbucks, which partnered with Concord on Ray Charles’ Grammy Award-sweeping “Genius Loves Company,” follow up that phenomenally successful album? By taking another legendary artist and pairing him with a stellar array of acts for what promises to be another strong duets album. Billboard has learned that the artist is Herbie Hancock and that among the performers already on tape with the keyboardist are Sting, Annie Lennox, John Mayer, Carlos Santana, Damien Rice and, as previously reported, Trey Anastasio.
Now we learn via Contactmusic that Herbie recorded Sting’s Sister Moon with Sting. The album entitled “Possibilities” will be released at the end of August 2005.
