In late October last year, 19yr old Rhokshanna was stoned to death in Ghor Province in Afghanistan. Having been found guilty of adultery by the Taliban who control that area. She had run away with her boyfriend to marry him. His punishment - a lashing. Her horrifying death was captured on mobile phones & then relayed on news sites around the world. The brutal treatment of women around the world is sadly nothing new but even so, Rhokshanna's story deeply affected me, and feeling powerless to do anything else, I responded by writing this song to remember her.

Cindy Douglas is one of the UK’s brightest emerging jazz singing talents. With a style that’s been described by Jazz Journal magazine as “creative … engaging … conversational”, Cindy has captured audiences’ imaginations across her native Scotland and won admirers among jazz aficionados and critics alike on her London appearances. A singer of traditional music from an early age, Cindy was inspired to devote her life to jazz after taking one of Scottish jazz singing doyenne Fionna Duncan’s vocal jazz courses, where the leading American singer and educator Madeline Eastman made an enormous impression.

With her debut album, My New Jive, receiving enthusiastic reviews from Jazzwise, the Voice of America magazine Jazz Beat and The Musician as well as Jazz Journal, Cindy has created waves as both singer and lyricist and as an inveterate musical adventurer with a fertile imagination she is moving forward with jazz’s core values of rhythm and emotion at heart.
