In 2016, Stevens worked with David A. Stewart of the Eurythmics, who co-wrote and produced the album.[2] [3]
On 13 February 2017, Stevens announced the release of the album along with the lead single "Hold On".[4] [5]
He was backed by former Beatles drummer Ringo Starr on the Track "One Way Street"
Jessie Cunneffe of Rolling Stone gave the album 3 out of 4 stars, saying; "If you're looking for a pub gig in an album, Jon Stevens has delivered. That said, it's the sort of gig you're likely to talk over some of the time – a solid backdrop of classic soul, blues, country and rock that amps up the atmosphere without monopolising your attentions. The skilfully delivered consistency is oddly wearisome at times though. While Starlight is polished and rocking, it's rather predictable".[6]
