Bettye LaVette is one of the most soulful singers alive. She started life in Muskegon, Michigan in the late '40s but moved to Detroit with her family when she was six years old. Unlike most of her peers, she did not grow up in a Baptist church singing gospel. As she says, "I am a child of the blues", which was the music she heard as a young child. Her soul is so deep, that it is assumed that she must have started in church.

"Working in Shifts" was born in informal jam sessions in living rooms, on patios and around campfires covering Dylan, The Dead and The Stones with an acoustic guitar, a banjo and a lead singer who has consumed bucketfuls of gravel, both vocally and metaphorically in life.
