about

Vanessa Stacey’s third independent single ‘Will We Learn.’ While lyrically conscious and featuring an excerpt from Maya Angelou’s poem ‘A Brave and Startling Truth’, delivers an upbeat, future Jazz and Funk fusion, stealthily brought to life by Vanessa and her live band The Shuffle: Johnny Lawrence (EWH) on Bass, Sam Notman (Thomas Oliver) on Drums, Matthew Steele and James Illingworth (Bliss and Eso) on Keys and Ashton Sellars (Deva Mahal) on Electric Guitar.

Recorded in The Albemarle, a red stickered heritage building and once famed bordello in the heart of Wellington. This uniquely beautiful yet desecrated space reverbs and vibe have fully imprinted these recordings. Engineered and mixed by Ricky Simmonds Music and mastered by Leon Zervos at 301 in Sydney.

“So, on October 20th 1972, The Equal Pay Act was passed in New Zealand but has yet to be enforced or even encouraged. So as 2018 and the 125 Suffrage Anniversary draw to an end. Let's celebrate these remarkable women, who fought fearlessly for equality and remember, that sadly, the battle is far from over… Anywhooo, here’s my new jam 'Will We Learn' aka “reap what you sow, get what you earn”…

"Drenched in southern fried soul, delivering a vocal performance straight out of the late 60s/early 70s. Vanessa Stacey's re-inventing of the wheel (with rims added) is a strength in soul music. Re-iterating the myth stories of human emotion and feelings will always have a place." - Martyn Pepperell ... more
