Joss Stone to rock Vienna in February

By Thomas Hochwarter

R&B star Joss Stone will perform in Austria next year.

The British singer, who rose to fame six years ago with her debut album "The Soul Sessions", is set to rock the stage at the Gasometer in Vienna on 21 February.

The 22-year-old released her fourth album, "Colour Me Free", earlier this year.

Tickets for the concert are on sale as of now, for example via www.oeticket.com or www.wien-ticket.at

The Vienna concert by American punk-rock legends Pennywise, scheduled for 23 January, however, has been cancelled, according to music news portal Britishrock.cc.
