A much loved and highly respected figure on the UK jazz scene, Scottish jazz vocalist Louise Dodds released her first album in 9 years in March this year. The album, ‘The Story Needs an Ending’, was also Louise’s first fully original album. Since its launch at Pizza Express Jazz Club, Louise and her quartet have taken the album on a tour of the UK, and are delighted to be making their debut at The Globe. The album features 10 original tracks, rooted in jazz but also with the art of song writing at their core. They are all written about Louise’s own life experiences, touching on subjects such as grief, female intuition, emancipation and learning to trust life again, and are both moving and uplifting.

“Our
singer’s journey is cleverly outlined…well written songs with interesting hooks
and a determination to live again” – Bebop Spoken Here
“An
eloquent and perhaps surprisingly buoyant album” – The Scotsman
“The
10 self penned tracks are strongly cathartic, a mood that’s served well by
limpid unfussy arrangements and Dodds’ own clear, unforced vocals” – Jazzwise
