Dee Dee Bridgewater October 20, 2005

Multiple Grammy-winning vocalist and Honorary U.N. Ambassador Dee Dee Bridgewater returns to Yoshi's to perform material from her lush new CD of French love songs, J'ai Deux Amours. This project is close to her heart and has been in the works for almost ten years. A passionate song cycle that traces the arc of a love affair (literally and figuratively) and all of the emotions which accompany it, J'ai Deux Amours is a project Bridgewater truly emanates from the heart. All the songs are wonderfully suited to Bridgewater's magnificent vocal range, intensity of expression and keen wit, and reflect a varied period of time in the history of French music. Bridgewater is one of only a handful of entertainers who have ever commanded such depth of artistry in every medium. At ease in any setting, at any tempo, sensual, full of nuance and vividly expressive, Dee Dee proves she is the reigning queen of jazz singers.
