Lisa Jane Stansfield (born April 11, 1966 in Heywood, Lancashire, England) is a Grammy Award-nominated and BRIT Award-winning English R&B and soul singer. Once the frontwoman of UK band Blue Zone, which saw modest success with their single "Jackie", she became a major international star beginning with her guest vocal stint on Coldcut's record People Hold On. Stansfield is probably best known for her first UK #1 single, All Around The World (1989), which also peaked at #3 in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 the following year. |
