55H.

Irish singer Coughlan is not immediately thought of as a jazz singer, but she has long since established her credentials in that department, alongside her equal expertise in folk and rock settings. She came out of a traditional music background, but says: ‘I suppose jazz and blues were my main thing after that - I listened to Billie Holiday a lot, Frank Sinatra, Sarah Vaughan, and I would also be listening to Bessie Smith and Muddy

Waters.’

She is an expressive interpreter of jazz standards, but her most celebrated excursion into jazz came with her Mary Coughlan Sings Billie Holiday album and tour in 1999. Some of that material is likely to figure in this concert, as part of an eclectic selection of songs ranging from Irish folk to Jacques Brel.

(Kenny Mathiesdn)

I Mary Coughlan is at the Old Fruitmarket, Glasgow, Thu- 16 Jan.
