Ma Bessie's Prohibition Party
Our concert features the career of the 'Empress of Blues', Bessie Smith in this foray into 1920s and '30s prohibition-era blues and jazz. Widely agreed to be the greatest female blues singer ever, Smith lived fast, drank hard and died (relatively) young, in a car crash in 1937, aged 43.
Julia Titus' warm vocals supported by the tremendous dynamism of her band covers Smith's songbook including classics like 'Careless Love', 'Nobody Knows When You
