Blues in the Night

A tremendous success on the West End in London, Blues in the Night is a dynamic compilation of twenty-six hot and torchy blues songs that frame and comment on three women’s relationships with one snake of a guy. The interweaving stories are defined through music alone – and what music! Ranging from Besse Smith through Duke Ellington, Johnny Mercer/Harold Arlen, Alberta Hunter, Jimmy Cox, Ida Cox, and more, the evening’s music is genuinely forthright, infectiously good-humored, and always classically blues.

Songs include “When A Woman Loves a Man,” “Wasted Life Blues,” “Lover Man,” “Wild Women Don’t Have the Blues,” and the gripping and compelling title song.
