Tomorrow lunchtime, Friday 19, Mo Scott, Empress of
the Blues, sings jazz and blues in the company of long-time musical associate
Neil Harland (bass) and pianist Paul Edis. In the intimate confines of the Loftus
Room at the Lit & Phil this will be a rare opportunity to hear Scott up
close and personal. No one sings the blues quite like Mo – you believe it when
she tells you how it is. Bassist Neil Harland is her ideal accompanist; years
of gigs makes theirs an instinctive partnership, talking, walking bass lines
conversing with Scott. Paul Edis has recently established a working
relationship with the vocalist – playing as a duo – and this lunchtime meeting
is likely to dip into the jazz repertoire as well as Scott’s natural oeuvre of
the blues. The Lit & Phil’s monthly concert series continues to attract a
large following. To be sure of a seat, arrive in good time for the one o’clock
start. Pay on the door (£4.00.), get yourself a tea or coffee, or something a little
stronger, and enjoy the one hour set of classic jazz and blues from the Empress
of the Blues – Mo Scott.
