She Put a Spell on Me: Kim Nalley sings Nina Simone - with pianist Tammy Hall
"Nina Simone was a singer, a social commentator, and a fighter. Often called the High Priestess of Soul, she was revered for her command of folk, blues, protest songs, and show tunes. So is it any wonder that Kim Nalley's show "She Put a Spell on Me: Kim Sings Nina" has been so popular? Nalley, whose hand in reopening the North Beach hot spot Jazz at Pearl's has made her into something of a hero in her own right, seems the perfect choice to interpret and pay tribute to the late, great Dr. Simone." San Francisco Weekly Musicians: Kim Nalley (vocals) Tammy Hall (piano) Greg Skaff (guitar) Michael Zisman (bass) Kent Bryson (drums) Pre-release copies of the "She Put A Spell On Me" CD will be available for sale at the concert! Recorded Live last year at Jazz at Pearl's.
Nalley's musical tribute is interpersed with historical commentary and unabashed delivery of the more controversial songs of Nina Simone's reperatoire. Kim Nalley's Tribute to Nina Simone has enjoyed four sold out runs in various venues since Dr. Simone's death and all the reviews have been exuberant. Kim Nalley, recently nominated as one the 10 most influential African amerciancs in the Bay Area, is a must see in this rare tribute. Advance tickets highly recommended as the show is expected to sell out.
