Judi Jackson and Sam Watts
Crazy Coqs Cabaret, W1F 7ED , [Venue Details]Having started out playing piano and singing in the church choir of her hometown of Roanoke, Virginia, Jackson took early inspiration from the likes of Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone, and it’s the long-standing influence of these artists that informs My American Songbook.
Featuring smartly arranged, free-flowing reworkings of standards including My Baby Just Cares For Me, Come Rain Or Come Shine and Stormy Weather, as well as Randy Newman’s Baltimore and The Beatles’ Here Comes The Sun, the album showcases Jackson’s masterful technical ability and the complex depth of emotion she brings to her vocal performances.
“Jackson is that rare thing, channelling the greats while bringing to the game a visceral sense of the pain and emotion she herself is drawing on…. A compelling presence” – The Sunday Times
