Brittany Howard Releases Spotify Singles “Stay High” And Funkadelic’s “You And Your Folks, Me And My Folks”

Brittany Howard has recorded a new version of her No. 1 AAA radio hit, “Stay High,” for the Spotify Singles program. Produced by Spotify’s William Garrett and recorded with her full band and background vocalists, the track is brimming with warmth and joy. The B-side is Howard’s powerful interpretation of Funkadelic’s “You And Your Folks, Me And My Folks.” The song – which originally appeared on Funkadelic’s classic 1971 album, Maggot Brain – takes on fresh urgency as a call to trust and provide for one another. Released today, the single is now available for streaming here: spotify:album:1KQQIiKcpLntswP4sW62yK

Driving more than three billion streams since the program began in 2017, Spotify Singles was created to give artists an opportunity to record new versions of their own songs, and the songs of the artists they love. While the majority of the Singles are recorded at the legendary Electric Lady Studios in NYC, Brittany’s was recorded at East West Studios in LA. The Singles scope includes a unique version of each artist’s own song (Side A) and a cover song of their choosing (Side B). To date, there have been over 300 Singles recorded as part of the program.

“Stay High” was the first single from Jaime, Howard’s debut solo album. The track spent three weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Songs chart and was Public Radio’s Most Popular Song of 2019. Views of the official video, which stars Terry Crews (“Everybody Hates Chris,” The Expendables films, Deadpool 2), have surpassed eight million.
