The lead single "Let Me Be" by Beth (Griffith-Manley) was pre-released from her new
album "Get To Know Me" on 22 Aug. The full album is now available from today (30
Sep 2022).
Whilst "Let Me Be" seems to have been influenced by S.O.S. Band's "Tell Me If You Still
Care", "Call Me" also has more than hints of the Aretha Franklin 1970 song but is not a straight cover, it simply uses the hook.
Other tracks to highlight include the title track "Get To Know Me", "Hey Bae Bae" and "U & Me". Several other tracks give a contemporary spin on a 80s theme for example
"Got Next" includes voice box and rap.
Beth is the daughter of legendary, classically trained,
pianist/keyboardist Motown Funk Brother Johnny Griffith.
She was cast in the 2011 remake of the movie "Sparkle" as the stand-in and body-double for Whitney Houston, during filming in
Detroit in 2011.
For the last decade Beth has provided background vocals for 3 time Grammy
winning Motown artist Kem and has been touring with him on his recent "The Full Circle" tour
promoting his latest EP as well as touring recently with The O'Jays and Najee. Beth was also a backing singer for 8 time Grammy winner Anita Baker for five years. Other artists she has sung with include Dave Mason, Ali 'Ollie" Woodson (Temptations), Yolanda Adams.
In 2019 she appeared in season 16 of The Voice coached by John
Legend.
