Barb Jungr sings Dylan and Cohen

Award-winning singer and writer and  “our greatest interpreter of Dylan’s songs”, Barb Jungr, returns with a collection of Dylan and Cohen’s most iconic songs mixing her best and award-winning interpretations with a selection of challenging new arrangements of these classic songbooks. Fresh from curating the first ever UK festival of Bob Dylan for Farnham Maltings, Visions of Dylan, Barb embarks on a series of shows celebrating two of the greatest contemporary songwriters of the Western world.

In 2014, Barb followed her award winning, internationally acclaimed collection of Dylan songs Every Grain Of Sand with Hard Rain, laying herself bare to Dylan’s and Cohen’s political and philosophical songs. Hard Rain gained many 4 and 5 star reviews for its uncompromising and powerful renditions. Bob Dylan’s manager called it  “some heavy music”.  Praise indeed. Jungr’s dedication to re-inventing Dylan’s and Cohen’s repertoire has contributed to her formidable reputation as perhaps the best performer of their songs in the world.

Working with her longstanding pianists and collaborators Jenny Carr or Simon Wallace, and also with double bass, Barb will include her groundbreaking arrangements of two of the most important songwriters of this and last century.

“Barb Jungr interprets [Dylan and Cohen’s] work with a ferocity and truthfulness  that demolishes every cover version you’ve ever heard” - The New York Times

"Bob Dylan, jazz, northern soul, Nina Simone and continental Europe’s cabaret music perform a subtle dance in Jungr’s consciousness” - The Guardian

“The brilliant jazz singer on world-beating form. Barb Jungr proves she's a genuine jazz marvel... A true musical alchemist” - The Telegraph
