The disc, As I Am, will be available on October 23. Produced in collaboration with writer/producer Linda Perry (former member of 4 Non Blondes), the CD will include the song The Thing About Love, which Keys performed last weekend at the New York Live Earth concert.
In addition to Perry, Keys invited guitarist/singer John Mayer and Floetry singer Marsha Ambrosius to join her on the disc. Keys plans to take her show on the road to promote the new album.
