Laka D plus Nora Bite Trio

Event information

Blow the Fuse presents Tomorrow the Moon II; a season of fresh, authentic music led by women.

This is the second of three double bills featuring some of the UK’s finest contemporary jazz groups with support from a younger generation of rising stars. One small step for woman ...

Laka D, Charismatic vocalist, songwriter, “choir mistress from hell”, whose soulful voice was featured with The Guest Stars and Emma Peel Fan Club. Drawing on personal reworkings of a wide range of material from Marvin Gaye, Billie Holiday and Chet Baker as well as her own songs, Laka D is a gifted singer whose voice really connects with the emotional centre of a song - a set of soul, gospel and blues inspired songs.
