Barb Jungr - tribute to Nina Simone

‘Just Like A Woman - Hymn To Nina'

After sellout shows in New York and Australia Britain’s best song stylist brings together her finest collection to date in her new and stunning show 'Just Like A Woman - Hymn to Nina’. Singing songs associated with her heroine, Nina Simone, Barb Jungr makes them her own, drawing subtle qualities from the lyrics and as always making their message utterly contemporary. Her life-enhancing, enchanting, passionate and very funny performances, known to audiences through her shows ‘Girl Talk’ and her interpretations of Bob Dylan’s songs have brought comparisons to Piaf, Peggy Lee and Nina Simone herself – but Jungr is unique. With humour, humanity and intelligence she continues to prove herself the "peerless interpreter of contemporary song"(Jazzwise). "Casually virtusosic"(The Guardian) Performing on tour with her brilliant musicians this is a magical new show from the "extraordinary singer" (The Times) Barb Jungr. Songs include Feeling Good, Please Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood, Just Like A Woman, To Love Somebody, The Other Woman, I Got Life, My Father, Lilac Wine and more. "astute...simmering....intelligent" The Sunday Times. "Magnificent ...Jungr's voice is truly a thing of wonder" The Daily Express.
