Building on her passion for the Empress of the Blues, Julia Titus performs as Ma Bessie, sharing the music of Bessie Smith and her contemporaries with a new generation of listeners. Julia's rich, warm vocal sound brings classic blues and jazz tunes from the inter-war years to life, alongside original songs and hand-picked covers.
This intimate new show features fresh, unheard material while keeping all the favourites that audiences love. The Ma Bessie repertoire includes classics such as 'Careless Love', 'Send me to the 'lectric chair', 'I forgot to say I love you' and 'Someone is knocking my door'.
With sell-out performances across the UK and a growing reputation for authentic sound, "An Evening with Ma Bessie" promises to add style, class and excitement to your evening.
