SUNSHOWERS:
Taking us through the various shades of Billie’s skilful story-telling, ‘SUNSHOWERS’ three tracks offer a fresh perspective of a woman’s navigation of her psyche; her sexuality, and her morality. A blend of old and new jazz; ‘SUNSHOWERS’ combines the rich legacy and tradition of late 30’s swing jazz, with contemporary rhythms, techniques and interpretations.
