Val Wiseman

Lady Sings The Blues at Isle of Arts Festival

THIS IS A SPONSORED FEATURE


In this, the centenary year of Billie Holiday’s birth, a wonderful reminder of this great singer and her songs is brought to us by the versatile and excellent Val Wiseman, accompanied by the cream of British jazz musicians.

Alan Barnes, Digby Fairweather, Roy Williams, Brian Dee, Len Skeat and Eric Ford surely don’t need any further introduction to jazz lovers.

Val and the band will take you back to where it all began in 1933 in New York, and take you on a musical journey through to Billie’s untimely death in 1959, including many of her greatest hits in this world class tribute.

“An appealing, stylish performer with a connoisseur’s ear for repertoire, Val Wiseman is one of Britain’s best jazz singers.” Jazz – the Essential Companion
