March 18 - Ruth
Lambert Trio
"It's all about the intimacy of
the trio. Three voices, each one as important as the other"
The Ruth Lambert Trio takes it's main
influence from the early recordings of Julie London's Trio. With the intimate
accompaniment of Giles Strong's guitar and Mick Shoulder's bass, Ruth swings,
improvises and transforms each song into something distinctive and personal.
From beautiful originals to classics
from the great American songbook, Ruth sings with an elegance that can take
your breath away. Strong and Shoulder transport you back to the days of the
smokey jazz club with a spirit that only genuine affection can achieve.
Their willingness to always serve the
song, musical taste and easy authority set this group apart from the legion of
vocal trios out there. Julie, Anita. and Carmen are all ingredients in the
recipe but the result is very much their own.
