Soul sensation JILL SCOTT is set to support STING on his forthcoming US tour.
Scott is going from strength to strength, despite not scooping the Best Newcomer or Best Female gongs at this year’s Grammy Awards last month.
Following her recent well-received, tour with Bad Boy Records’ Carl Thomas, Jill has confirmed that she will now be supporting the former Police star on tour.
