Whilst BSH attempts to cover as many gigs, festivals and albums as possible, to make the site even more comprehensive we need more 'boots on the ground' to cover the albums seeking review - a large percentage of which never get heard - report on gigs or just to air your views on anything jazz related. Interested? then please get in touch. Contact details are on the blog. Look forward to hearing from you. Lance

This is the lady who sang at the Caff jam session following Saturday night at the Sage Festival (who told FDT he plays like he's had his heart broken).

Lord Paul (no less) stopped her as she passed to tell her she has a terrific voice and very much the soulful end of Jazz singers.

On Friday I had to pick the missus up at Durham Train Station at 9.15 - great. And I've been planning to give this venue a go for a while and, had it not been for the Bad Plus at the Sage, this would have been the night.
