Alexandra Burke to sing Holiday’s blues at Royal Albert Hall
By Aly Barchi | Published on Wednesday 27 March 2013
‘X-Factor’ chanteuse (circa 2008) Alexandra Burke is going to pose as Billy Holiday in a live homage to the late jazz singer’s 1972 film, ‘Lady Sings The Blues’.
Burke, who will cover various of Holiday’s jazz and blues classics over five nights (4-8 Jun) at the Royal Albert Hall’s Elgar Room, says: “It is an honour to be able to sing Billie Holiday’s songs”.
