Release Notes:

Joan Osborne, will be releasing her Vanguard Records debut, "Pretty

Little Stranger," on November 14th. Recorded in Nashville and

produced by Grammy winner, Steve Buckingham, "Pretty Little Stranger"

highlights the soulful sound of Joan Osborne with elements of country

blues and Americana.

This 12 song collection features six original tunes written by Joan

including the first single, "Who Divided," "Shake That Devil," "After

Jane" and the title track and also compositions by Kris Kristofferson

("Please Don't Tell Me How The Story Ends"), Jerry Garcia/Robert

Hunter ("Brokedown Palace") and Patty Griffin ("What You Are").

Joan stated, "I would call this my version of a country record --

some of it very traditional, some less so. It tells feelings and

stories in very simple language, and I wanted to focus on that simple

way of communicating, rather than be flowery and poetic. I needed to

get down to the bare bones and I feel like we did a good job of doing

that."

"Pretty Little Stranger" features some of music's finest performers

lending their talents including Vince Gill on "Time Won't Tell,"

Alison Krauss, "Holy Waters," Sonny Landreth playing slide guitar on

"Dead Roses" and Rodney Crowell providing harmony vocals on his own

"When The Blue Hour Comes."

Joan Osborne had one of the biggest releases of the mid-90s with

"Relish" and participated in the historic and successful Lilith Fair

Tour. She has worked with a myriad of artists like Bob Dylan, Stevie

Wonder, The Chieftains and Bonnie Raitt. She toured with The Dead in

the summer of 2004 and recently finished a tour with Phil Lesh &

Friends.
