Claire Martin-Celebrating the Divas of Jazz

Den engelske førstedame indenfor jazzen besøger Cafe Støj og er gæstesolist med hustrion på Cafe Støj under ledelse af kapelmester Kristian Leth.

Der brænder en særlig ild i Claire Martin. En stærk vilje til at få musikken ud til publikum. Hun er kendt som en fantastisk performer der ikke forlader sit publikum før alle har fået hvad de kom for. En uforglemmelig koncert.

På trods af et utal af priser, (bla. OBE (Order of the British Empire) af det britiske kongehus), heftig koncert og turneaktivitet over det meste af verden samt + 20 udgivelser på CV’et, er Claire Martin ikke damen der sætter farten ned. De seneste to år har ud udgivet endnu tre anmelderroste udgivelser: ”Bumpin” (Stunt 2019), ”Believin’ it” (LINN 2019) samt ”Songs and Stories” (stunt 2020). Det vidner om at Claire Martin holder sig på toppen som en af Europas bedste jazzvokalister.

Claire Martin har en varm stemme og en elegant og forførende stil. Hun evner at favne jazzen i al sin helhed fra det klassiske standardrepertoire over nyere kompositioner til jazzede fortolkninger af sange fra andre genre.
