Jazz, R&B and Gospel Influenced Singer Releases New Single “Hold On Stay Strong” As an Emergency Song.
Known predominantly for her work with the iconic Ray Charles, Cynthia has traveled the world as an American jazz Ambassador. Her Career has taken her music to four continents with concert and night club performances.
Hold On Stay Strong is one of the tunes that was being recorded for a future recording called “Hear It For Yourself” that was still in studio production when the Covid-19 epidemic hit.
The production was put on hold until a stranger contacted Scott and requested she share the song now, knowing the song would give strength and hope to a world that was experiencing the devastating effects of Covid-19.
Ms. Scott decided to release the song finishing it online, as a single. The song is positive, the lyrics are poignant and the sentiment is heartfelt. The aim is to try to support people emotionally through her music, and to give hope and peace to people who might need it.
It is dedicated to health and service workers globally and to all of us affected. Giving us an uplifting message to “Hold On Stay Strong” as we all navigate these very trying times.
“In a rich, soulful voice, she sings messages of hope and compassion.”
But her real accomplishment has been her ability to draw people in with her own style; something that mixes R and B, Jazz, Blues, Soul and Gospel into a character that is solely her own.
