Crystal Penny celebrates the All-Time Greatest Divas, whose timeless romantic classics still capture listeners’ hearts today.
New York, New York—12h April 2023- Sisters Crystal Wilson Blackmon and Penni Wilson, the singer-songwriter duo known as Crystal Penny, have released a new song, “Standards,” a timeless R&B tune brought to life by their trademark vocal harmonies, an engaging melody and lyrics that praise the legendary divas of soul music.
Already embraced by UK audiences, Crystal Penny’s new single is a follow-up to their original soul classic recordings (performed under the group name The Lovations) that have gone viral and will be available on all music app platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon starting April 21, 2023.
The core sentiment of their new single is a celebration of the Queens of the Quiet Storm. Many of these legendary ladies’ personal and professional journeys hit close to home to the Wilson sisters. “The women mentioned in the song are our icons,” says Crystal Blackmon Wilson. “We grew up listening to Sarah Vaughan and idolized Etta James and Dionne Warwick. These women inspired us to sing in the first place.”
Crystal and Penni understand how love songs affect the way we love, live, and interact with one another. “Our favorite vocalists express the grand illusion of what love should be and what we should feel,” Penni adds. “We hear it on the radio and strive to find it in our lives.”
Standards’ catchy hook is a list of famous divas’ names, including Etta James, Sarah Vaughn, Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick, Chaka Khan, Phyllis Hyman, and Patti LaBelle. These women taught higher standards of romance to generations of Quiet Storm listeners.
