Josephine Mills

Sultry, powerful, and commanding is the voice of Josephine Mills who makes her debut with Orleans Records on This Is Love. The CD begins with "Dance With Me," a stirring, provocative, funky track. "I'm Gone" features a beautiful saxophone solo and "Don't Wait for Me" is a hard-hitting, soulful, rhythm and blues chart with a modern flair. This Is Love is a confluence of old school rhythm and blues and jazz idioms, polished with modern sensitivities. All songs on This Is Love were written by Josephine Mills.
