Dee Dee Bridgewater is a fantastic live performer. One of today’s leading female jazz vocal stars, she has worked with all the great instrumentalists, counting Sonny Rollins, Dizzy Gillespie, Dexter Gordon, Max Roach and Roland Kirk among her list of past collaborators. Her landmark portrayal of Billie Holiday in stage show ‘Lady Day’ saw her nominated for an Olivier Award. Two Grammy Awards later, she’s still going strong. “Dee Dee Bridgewater has a technique and musicality that bests most performers of her generation,” declared The Guardian in a recent 4* review, “and her understanding of the "great American songbook" makes pretenders pale in comparison.”
