“Lady Sings The Blues is a tribute to the memory of Billie Holiday in the best possible way – presenting the songs she sang in the style of her period. It is not a play. Neither is it a documentary, nor a slavish recreation of Billie’s original recordings, but an evening with six of Europe’s finest jazz musicians and a most remarkable singer” DAVE GELLY, THE OBSERVER
2015 marks one hundred years since the birth of the greatest of all jazz singers, BILLIE HOLIDAY.
To celebrate the centenary, the critically-acclaimed tribute to Billie, LADY SINGS THE BLUES is returning to perform shows throughout the UK and Europe....
