TEARS DRY ON THEIR OWN - REMEMBERING AMY WINEHOUSE

buy
The Basement, NSW
Fri 14 Sep, 2012
09:00 PM






On the night of what would have been Amy's 28th birthday, join the team from last year's sensational event to celebrate her life and music.
In November 2011, a group of Sydney musicians joined together to honour the talent and inspiration of the inimitable Amy Winehouse. They played to a full house of fans, who were blown away by their passionate and powerful interpretations of Amy's music and swagger.
This year, the cast is back together to celebrate what would have been Amy's 28th birthday. Alphamama, Billie McCarthy and Ines, all divas in their own right, will sing their souls for Amy, inviting you into her world.
With the production talents of Mark Ronson, and the slick soul sounds of the Dap Kings in mind, musical director Danny G Felix has assembled a spectacular band including Paul Mason on guitar, Jarrol Renaud on bass, Stephen 'Slam' Lamante on drums, and a horn section featuring Mike Raper, James Loughnan and Angus Gomm. Felix and Mike Pensini will bring Amy's music to life with keys and synth.
The show sold out in 2011, and is sure to do the same in 2012.
