Wendy Matthews performs BILLIE AND ME – A Tribute to Billie Holiday’s music
One of Australia’s most talented singer songwriters WENDY MATTHEWS has recorded a live album (Billie and Me) with long time collaborators Brendan St Ledger on piano and Greg Royal on standup bass – inspired by the music and soul of the late Billie Holiday.
Since the albums’ release this group of four including Mick King (guitar) have been touring the Billie & Me show across Australia to sell out venues. Fans can expect an intimate show with an introspective translation of some classic and not so classic Billie Holiday masterpieces, including ‘God Bless the Child’, ‘Good Morning Heartache’, ‘The Man I Love’ and ‘You’re My Thrill’.
This show is not to be missed – Wendy Matthews is an iconic jazz performer, who is still considered to be one of the greatest Australian voices of all time
Additionally, Wendy and her band perform a handful of reworked popular songs from Wendy’s highly successful career, fitting into a similar vein, including ‘The Day You Went Away’, ‘Woman’s Got To Have It’ ‘Token Angels’ and ‘I Don’t Want to be With Nobody But You’.
A very special show not to be missed!
