jakenewmanbass Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) I know cabaret can be looked down upon in music circles sometimes but this lady is in my view worthy of the highest accolade, she has one of the most incredible voices I've had the pleasure of performing with. I'm doing 3 nights (2 to go) with her at the Hippodrome Leicester square. I'd say come down but it's sold out already, no surprise she is a staggeringly good singer but also very musical and lovely AND humble with it. A total winning combo. For the impatient amongst you the music starts around 3.30 http://youtu.be/TiOPigCwYlc Edited September 6, 2014 by jakenewmanbass Quote

jakenewmanbass Posted September 7, 2014 Author Posted September 7, 2014 Just back from 3 nights with this lady and for the first time in years I had several massive goose bump moments in the show, she is truly world class...! Quote

Colonel36 Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Wonderful. Never thought I'd hear someone sing the fabulous Christina Aguilera like she does. Quote
jakenewmanbass Posted October 23, 2014 Author Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) And a video was made... I look grumpy because I'm reading so head down.. She is dynamite though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Enygyo3ucY0&feature=youtu.be Edited October 23, 2014 by jakenewmanbass Quote
visog Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Here's the thing. She is really, really good but she's not doing anything new. And that's why music is dying... Quote
lowdown Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Music dying? Very odd thing to say (imho of course). She is terrific entertainment, with a great voice. Well played Jake, great stuff. Quote
