WHEN LADIES MEET,
THEN THE GUYS (don’t) KNOW WHAT TO DO…
Dinah, Eartha, Etta, Shjazz, Lady Miles – Saskia Laroo & Warren Byrd
Five ladies. 6 voices. And a gentleman. One hell of a combination.
Dinah Washington with her elegance and swing.
Eartha Kitt with her theatrical fire and wicked wit.
Etta James with her raw, unmistakable soul.
Shjazz, bringing her own voice, stories, humour and jazz spirit to the table.
Saskia Laroo brings her unmistakable trumpet sound.
Warren Byrd sits behind the piano, adding depth, rhythm, colour and soul. They don’t just accompany the ladies. They listen, respond, challenge and play.These ladies never simply sang a song.
They owned it.
And when the ladies meet, the guys know exactly what to do.
Together, Shjazz, Saskia Laroo and Warren Byrd create a musical conversation where jazz, blues and soul meet storytelling, personality and improvisation.
Expect elegance and grit.
Sensuality and humour.
Heartbreak and attitude.
A little glamour. A little danger. And plenty of swing.
This isn’t about recreating the past. It’s about bringing the spirit of these extraordinary women into the present through Shjazz, her alter egos Lady D and Lady Miles, and the musical chemistry of Saskia Laroo and Warren Byrd.
Dinah. Eartha. Etta. Shjazz.
(Lady Miles.) Saskia Warren.
Different personalities. Different stories. One unforgettable encounter.
