THE SARAH GILLESPIE QUARTET
FEATURING
THE
Sun 25th Jan 2009
£12
A seasoned performer _at_ Ronnie
Scotts, 606 Club & the Vortex, Anglo-American songstress Gillespie performs
a combination of originals & standards with her dynamite band featuring
middle-eastern be-bop star, Gilad Atzmon on clarinet, accordion & alto sax.
Expect emotive ballads & raucous gypsy swing incorporating pre-rock elements
of blues, vaudeville & Balkan flourishes. An intelligent, witty wordsmith
Sarah delivers her infectious songs with a powerfully sensuous voice & deft
finger-picking guitar. Tonight she is performing with Gilad Atzmon and Ben
Bastin – double bass.
“Sarah’s voice totally fills the
room – extremely distinctive, smoky and seductive with a bluesy edge.” Get
Rhythm
“Audiences are clearly bowled over
with Atzmon's whirlwind approach ... dynamic, charismatic and ...
exasperating!”- Brian Blain, Jazz
