December 14th my my new single ‘Loving You’ will be released!
I recorded this cover (written by Minnie Riperton & Richard Rudolph) together with guitarist Bas van der Wal in a hot and sweaty studio, when we were in the middel of a tropical heat-wave. Maybe that’s why we were so relaxed 🙂
Sugar Stevie Ray
Sugar Stevie Ray
Say do you dare to walk out with me
Leave this place of misery
Say do you feel it is time to let go
Don’t hold on to history
Is the ink on your skin
There forever
Is that look in your eyes
Never ending
Do you fall and
Do you see that
That the light of day is here
Sugar Stevie Ray is here
What do you fear in the dead of the night?
Are you strong enough to fight?
Can you hold on to your dreams until dawn?
Wake up like you’re newly born?
Your story is not yet told
You’ll be surprised
By that look in your eyes
Never ending
Do you fall and
Do you see that
That the light of day is here
Sugar Stevie Ray is here
No time to linger on this beaten path
Let’s shake off what couldn’t last
Taking my freedom with you by my side
There’s no need for us to hide
Our story is not yet told
You’ll be surprised
By that look in my eyes
Never ending
Do you fall and
Do you see that
That the light of day is here
Sugar Stevie Ray is here, Sugar Stevie Ray is here, Sugar Stevie Ray is here
‘Sugar Stevie Ray’ is here :-)

Sugar Stevie Ray
Anne Chris is currently busy writing songs for her new album. She’s writing with the very talented musicians she has worked with the last few years. The songs will turn out to be a broad mixture of pop, folk, soul & classical music. Each song demands a different approach and different musicians.
The first single ‘Sugar Stevie Ray’ is already recorded and will be released in the beginning of 2017, combined with a video directed by Nisha Tara, featuring Afke Reijenga and the beautiful city of Amsterdam.
