Mixing storytelling with song, one of the UK’s jazz treasures reads from her recently published memoirs ‘The Singer’s Tale’ punctuated with songs spanning her career.
‘Grimes has a fascinating story to tell. She also has a command of shaping and delivering words, a performance sense, and the musical and human depth and warmth to really make something of this.’
A deeply touching and humorous ‘back stage’ view into the life of one of our great singers performed alongside a cracking band including: Richard Bundy, Alison Rayner, Winston Clifford and Paul Chenoir.
