Jazz HerStory - Songs By Women

Tilly Street performs as part of the Peach Black Winter Festival, celebrating Woman in Music across June, July and August

From Dorothy Fields to Bernice Petkere, Billie Holiday to Carmen McRae - there are many songs that people don’t realise had a woman behind the piano/pen. Joined by Arthur Washington on guitar and Max Aldouca on bass, Tilly Street will perform a suite of jazz standards all composed by women. Together the trio will honour their stories with an evening of beautiful music!
