Brit Award and Ivor Novello Award-winning KT Tunstall has released a cover of Tom Petty’s hit single "I Won’t Back Down." Mike McCready, lead guitarist from legendary Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band Pearl Jam performs guitar alongside KT. 

In the new single, produced by McCready, KT takes center stage, showcasing her voice’s blues tones as she powers through the classic melody, as well as taking up acoustic guitar, bass, keyboard and percussion duties. McCready joins on backing vocals and guitar then enters with a rippling guitar solo as the song climaxes. Performing on drums is Leah Julius from Thunderpussy. Proceeds from the track will go to Pearl Jam’s Vitalogy Foundation. For more info visit:  https://pearljam.com/acts/vitalogy.
