Montreal jazz and cabaret singer Amanda Mabro in town tonight
As part of the TD Jazz Festival this week, Montreal chanteuse Amanda Mabro commitment performing at the Supermarket tonight. Amanda's superannuated school belt-out jazz has a sense of theatrical throwback as she mixes in French and German cabaret influences - think Ella Fitzgerald meets Marlena Dietrich more than Jane Monheit. Having just released her Red Rows EP which CBC Radio 1 calls "groundbreaking", Amanda is busy with the jazz commemoration ripen with another concert at the Festival ecumenical de Jazz de Montreal next week. She also produces WAWA (WeAre WomenArtists) which recently wrapped its fourth annual show back in her hometown.
