Our Bev will be releasing her impassioned gospel infused cover of George Michael’s ‘One More Try’ on 23rd October on Hurricane Records. Taken from her acclaimed ‘Soul UK’ album and originally featured on Michael’s #1 UK and US album Faith, One More Try shows George Michael’s songwriting at it’s best and most soulful (the track was also a US R&B Chart no 1). Beverley’s version is widely credited as one of the stand-out cuts from ‘Soul UK’ and has been praised by the man himself:

“I’m always flattered by cover versions of my songs - especially when they are sung as beautifully as this. Thank You Beverley xxx” George Michael

What the press are saying about One More Try:

‘Soaring, fiercely impassioned, gospel-tinged version of George Michael’s classic, which sounds as if it’s been replanted into America’s Deep South’ Q Magazine

‘(Knight) makes ‘One More Try’ sound as timeless as Jimmy Cliff’s ‘Many Rivers To Cross’ Independent On Sunday

‘…Best of all is Knight’s gospel-tinged overhaul of George Michael’s epic One More Try, where she offers hope without forgetting the pain. It’s a stunning vocal performance.’ Evening Standard
