Continuing the successful Songs From Other Places world tour, which culminated in her winning Best Vocal Performance at the 2022 Jazz Music Awards, plus a stop to perform A Tone About Jobim, a series of sold-out concerts for her project with Grammy-nominated singer Danilo Caymmi, Stacey Kent returns to her beloved Portugal with her two closest and oldest musical colleagues, pianist Art Hirahara and saxophonist and composer Jim Tomlinson.
Songs From Other Places is a captivating and eclectic collection of songs, which includes originals written for Stacey by Nobel Prize-winning author Kazuo Ishiguro and Jim Tomlinson. The expanding repertoire for this project is an exploration of the themes of place, belonging and the transformative power of travel. It includes songs by Paul Simon, Jobim, Weill & Gershwin, Lennon & McCartney, Stevie Nicks, plus new originals by Tomlinson & Ishiguro, all performed in Stacey's intoxicating, multilingual style that fuses jazz, folk, chanson and bossa nova.
With over 2 million albums sold, almost 500 million streams on Spotify and a string of awards, including Best Vocal Album for I Know I Dream (Sony) at the 2018 Jazz Japan Awards, Kent continues to seduce as a performer and artist. His return to CCB is not to be missed!
