Barbra Streisand announces star-studded duets album featuring Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney and Ariana Grande

Barbra Streisand is returning with a new collection of duets, this time collaborating with a mix of legends and contemporary stars. Titled The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two, the album is set for release on June 27 and serves as a follow-up to her 2014 record Partners. The 83-year-old icon has teamed up with renowned artists including Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, and Ariana Grande for this much-anticipated sequel.

Breaking the news on social media, Streisand shared her excitement about the upcoming project, “I’ve always loved singing duets with gifted artists. They inspire me in unique and different ways…and make our time in the studio a joy! My new album, The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two, gave me the chance to work and play with some of my old friends, label mates, and new artists too. I admire all of them… and I hope that you’ll enjoy listening to our collaborations as much as I enjoyed recording with all of my wonderful partners.”

While fans await the full album, the first single has already been unveiled—a rendition of The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, featuring Irish singer-songwriter Hozier. Speaking to Variety, Hozier expressed his admiration, “Barbra Streisand is one of the most enduring and iconic vocalists of our time, and somebody who defined an era with the sheer force of her voice, her talent, charisma and vision. To be asked to join her on a duet was a huge honour and came as a wonderful and welcome surprise.”
