This fall, 16-year-old Sky Ferreira will record her debut album with hit-making production/songwriting duo Bloodshy & Avant, 2004 Grammy-winners for Best Dance Recording ( Britney Spears,"Toxic"). Based in Sweden, the duo has also worked with Madonna ("Confessions on a Dancefloor"), Kylie Minogue ("X") and continues to work with Spears (the singles: "Me Against the Music, "Piece of Me," "Radar"). Ferreira's debut will appear on the Bloody & Avant's new label Ändersson and will be distributed by EMI. Ferreira recently filmed the indie-film "Metal Gods" and contributed vocals to a new remix o "Teen Lovers" by indie rock trio The Virgins.

This cover of Stand Back - which was recorded a few months ago - was produced by Skeet & Tito. No word on a commercial single release or if it will appear on her debut.

My review: A detached, passionless vocal - which could work if someone like Ladyhawke provided vocals and a new arrangement - and a bland, entirely-programmed musical backdrop.

She sang for Michael Jackson when she was eleven years old and he was so moved by her performance he cried. Also, she reportedly has the same vocal range as Mariah Carey.
