"...the brilliant British chanteuse who inserts sticks of emotional dynamite into songs of every vintage...Empathy is her game, and few singers in any genre extend themselves more deeply into the lives of others." (Stephen Holden - The New York Times)
"This pensive collection hits its stride from the outset, with a brave rendering of Once in a Lifetime - it's as if David Byrne had fallen into the hands of a Sondheim heroine."
Following sell-out runs at NYC's Café Carlyle and The Metropolitan Room, a week at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and a sell-out tour of Australia, the UK's foremost song stylist, Barb Jungr will be back in the USA for a series of live dates with her critically acclaimed show The Men I Love (also a new studio album on Naim Records). Don't miss this sensational performer and winner of two New York awards (Nightlife Award for Outstanding Cabaret Vocalist and a Backstage Award for Best International Artist) at the very top of her game.
"The spirited chanteuse sings ditties you've heard before but never expected to hear this way. She gets so deep into her material you may get the bends resurfacing...miss her artistry at your peril." (David FinkleS, Village Voice)
