MIDNIGHT SUN

Lady Linn & her Magnificent Seven present: MIDNIGHT SUN. Besides a natural phenomenon, also a jazz classic by Stan Kenton which can also be heard on the new, eponymous jazz record by Lady Linn & Her Magnificent Seven. The tour 'MIDNIGHT SUN' is an ode to dark and light, the duality of life and especially a hymn to the night. The repertoire consists of timeless jazz, rock, pop, house, gospel and country songs with "the night" as a common denominator, each one played and arranged with room for improvisation and dialogue. Round Midnight, The Middle of the night, one of the many jazz classics by Nina Simone, A night to remember by Shalamar, After Midnight by JJ Cale, One of these nights by The Eagles, The night the lights went out in Georgia van Vicky Lawrence of Night Air by Jamie Woon – all these songs come together in a varied set that is musically woven into one whole. They all embody the endless possibilities of the night, from the boisterous bustling nightlife to budding loves to murder ballads and melancholy.
