‘So Be It’ is the third single to be released from Lisa Stansfield’s new Top 15 album ‘Seven’.
After the success of her latest single ‘Carry On’, which she performed live on Jools Holland’s Hootenanny 2013 on BBC Two, Lisa Stansfield is presenting us with another seductively soulful tune about accepting who we are and believing in ourselves. ‘So Be It’ is flavoured with the jazzy tones that Lisa is famous for; soothing to the soul and easy on the ears. Her powerful vocals alongside gentle instrumentation and emotive lyrics make for a beautiful third single. “This song is lovely to me. It's all about being proud of being yourself and holding your head up high. We are what we are. So be it!”
Twenty five years after topping the charts, globally, with the single ‘All Around The World’, and ten years after the release of her last album, Lisa returned to the UK charts in February when ‘Seven’ debuted at number 13.
Lisa and her band will be performing songs from ‘Seven’ as well as classic hits from throughout her 25 year career.

Adding a further string to her bow, and with Lisa’s ongoing contribution to British Soul being undeniable, she will be starring in an independent film about the genre due out in 2014. Charting the soul phenomenon that rose out of Northern England, ‘Northern Soul’ will see Lisa team up with a renowned cast of UK actors including Steve Coogan and Ricky Tomlinson paying homage to the musical genre that has influenced her own style.
