Billie McCarthy - 5:30pm

 

Fat, funny and born to sing Billie McCarthy is a country girl who took the jazz bus to the city and had a dirty love affair in a back lane with neo soul.

 

A smoky brew of jazz diva, soul songstress and folk balladeer, Billie McCarthy’s style and musicality is reminiscent of Billie Holiday, Joni Mitchell, Blossom Dearie and Jill Scott.
The result is soulful, edgy and intimate music, which transfixes the audience with Billie's poetry, passion and presence.

 

Alice Terry - 6:45pm

“Alice Terry is an undeniable combination of old school chanteuse and the grit of Janis Joplin. Her songs are emotional without being cloying, and pair equal measures regret and lament, with cheek and sass. If the swoops and croons are anything to go by, Terry is a singer equally comfortable howling at the moon for the hell of it as she is walking the line of soul-wrenching honesty.” - The Music
