Today Show, NBC Nightly News and Lehrer NewsHour to Feature Mavis

Tune in to The Today Show (NBC) tomorrow morning, The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer (PBS) Thursday and NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams Friday for insightful interviews with all-time great soul/gospel vocalist Mavis Staples.

Mavis is earning the best reviews of her career for her new album We’ll Never Turn Back (Anti- Records), which The Wall Street Journal called her "magnum opus."

Mavis's latest release catapulted to the Top 5 on iTunes' R&B chart and Amazon’s overall CD sales chart after being featured in a round-up of noteworthy new releases on CBS Sunday Morning. Staples has also performed songs from the album on Jay Leno, David Letterman and Conan O'Brien.
