JNT Music and Vendition Records are excited to announce, International Soul Sensation Jaki Graham has teamed up with Manchester based producer/DJ Nick Shaw (AKA Nine Lives) to create the new single entitled ‘1985’, influenced by Jaki’s 1985 smash ‘Round and Around’.

Promotional copies of the single (distributed since mid-January) are already building momentum, with exposure in clubs and radio stations both in the UK and across Europe.

The single will be available for international purchase from all major online retailers including I-Tunes and Amazon.

Following a very busy 2011 for Jaki, who continues to perform across the globe, and included joining Sir Cliff Richard as a special guest on his ‘Soulicious Tour’ (currently available to purchase on DVD), ‘1985’ is the start of many things to come, shaping an amazing 2012!

February will see the launch of a limited edition collection of Jaki’s own chocolate range ‘Jaki Graham Indulgence’’ created by world leading Artisan and bespoke chocolatier, Paul Wayne Gregory (www.paulwaynegregory.com). The range of chocolates specially released for Valentine’s Day, will be available to purchase at www.jaki-graham.com.

Jaki commences work on her brand new studio album in March (the first since her 1998 release ‘My Life’) and will contain Jaki’s own unique interpretation on some of the classic soul and jazz standards on which she was raised. Filming is also underway for her documentary which should be commissioned to air in October to tie in with Black History Month and the release of her Autobiography ‘Heaven Knows’, detailing her personal struggles alongside her ongoing successes to date, that have helped to shape the people’s champion she has become.
