Maggie Reeday closes this series of #souldivas events in the foyer of Electric Palace – but what a finale. She brings pure class to whatever she turns her hand to— jazz standards, soul classics or a touch of blues. Think George Benson, Bill Withers, Etta James, Roberta Flack – you name it!

This event is part of Bridport-Birth of the Cool, a month-long festival of jazz, sponsored by Clocktower Records and Jazz Jurassica.

Enjoy an evening with a singer who’s done it all and still sounds as fresh as a daisy. Think you’ve heard great jazz vocals before? Wait till you hear Maggie.

She’s one of the South West’s finest jazz voices — and she earned that title the long way. Resident singer. TV regular. Eight-week ITV residency with Ruth Langsford.
Royal Command Performance at the London Palladium. Sharing stages with Paul Daniels, Jim Davidson and even Atomic Kitten.

But Maggie’s heart has always belonged to jazz. And when she sings the standards, you hear why. Jazz Journal International nailed it:“She has all the ingredients a jazz singer requires.”
