Joss Stone
Devon is not a place renowned for its contribution to the soul music business.
Well, with one exception- Joss Stone, 1987- present. She has two Brit Awards and a Grammy to her name.
However, she's also done a bit of acting- including The Tudors as Anne of Cleves and a voice part in the new James Bond video game, James Bond 007: Blood Stone
She Does Not Like Shoes, frequently performing barefoot.
Not to be confused with Joss Whedon. Or Emma Stone.
