The popular Clare Teal and her pianist/musical director, Grant Windsor, have released a brand-new album entitled, And So It Goes, which includes several songs from Clare's brand-new show: The Divas and Me!

For this new Festival, Britain's very own Queen of Swing celebrates the music of her heroines, the leading lights of the jazz and big band world Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Judy Garland, Doris Day and many of their illustrious contemporaries.

The multi-award-winning singer and BBC Radio 2 broadcaster demonstrates also the influence these characters have had on her own acclaimed catalogue of work. Known for her knowledge and love of the Great American Songbook and, more recently, The Great British Songbook.

With wit and warmth Clare tells outrageous anecdotes of their extraordinary lives and points to the future of Diva-dom with a few relevant originals and more modern day covers.

Accompanied by the gifted Grant Windsor on piano, this is a not-to-be-missed evening of "feel good" music, inspired by the greats and played by the best.
