Mavis Staples
Livin’ On A High Note

With Livin’ On A High Note, Mavis Staples has delivered the most joyful and uplifting record of her career. Twelve original songs written exclusively for Mavis by some of the finest songwriters of our time including M. Ward, Ben Harper, Valerie June, Neko Case, tune-yards, Nick Cave, Jon Batiste, Justin Vernon, Aloe Blacc, and more. At age 76, Mavis Staples shows no signs of slowing down and 2016 is slated to be one of her best years yet. On February 29th, HBO will debut Mavis! – the first feature length documentary on the gospel/soul music legend and civil rights icon.
