The Life Of Bessie Smith
Bessie Smith is one of the most iconic artists in blues history. Her raw, visceral howl of a voice chronicled a life of gin-soaked bar room brawls, renegade lovers and bawdy nights of Harlem vaudeville.
This evening the critically acclaimed Anglo-American songstress Sarah Gillespie takes to the stage with a fresh interpretation of her heroine, whose lucid jazz poetry, raucous humour and dark cathartic blues blazed a trail for generations of performers.
Sarah Gillespie Quartet
Sarah Gillespie is not quite folk, nor jazz, nor pop, nor protest singer. She’s all of them. And a bit more.
