With her heart-melting, smoky, evocative voice, Christine Bovill cherry-picks some of the most celebrated songs and engrossing stories from the Jazz Age: the era of Prohibition, women’s suffrage, radio, flappers, vamps, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Dorothy Parker, Charlie Chaplin, Charles Lindbergh and Bessie Smith. A decade of heroes and villains; of sex scandals; literary giants and criminal low lives – all beautifully bound in the seductive rhythms of jazz.
Including…… “Fascinatin’ Rhythm” “Smile” “After You’ve Gone”, “Puttin’ on the Ritz, “Blue Skies,” “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?”, “Yes, We Have No Bananas!”

“Christine Bovill is a Scottish gem. All the talent of the cabaret divas, yet none of the airs and graces. Her version of Ol’ Man River brings a tear to the eye and Brother Can You Spare A Dime? sends a chill down the spine. “ The Wee Review
