Life & Lavette

Shabaka Slider

That most idiosyncratic of soul voices, Ms Bettye Lavette, will make a one-stop appearance at London’s Jazz Café this summer.
She’ll be lettin’ you down easy on Tuesday, July 15, when tickets will be priced at around £27.50.
“Like all voices,” says Bettye, “mine has changed over the years. I’d like to think that the change has to do with wisdom. I’m far more selective about what songs I’ll sing. If I can’t re-sculpt them and, in many instances actually reinvent them to be part of my story, I can’t make them come to life.”
